seconds after turning OFF the

diesel engine. The high-pressure

pump, high-pressure pipes, rail,

and injectors are still subject to

the high pressure right after

stopping the diesel engine.When

cuts, cracks, excessive wear or oil

saturation and replace if necessary.

Drive belts should be checked peri-

odically for proper tension and

adjusted as necessary.
