Thank you for your purchase of our Brass Tip FSS Plunger!

The following will help walk you through the installation process of our plunger in an injection pump. 

For this illustration we will be using a Bosch VE style Injection Pump.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO REMOVE YOUR PUMP!

Next, clean out the bore and housing where the FSS is mounted. The O-ring will need a clean surface to seal properly. Take extra precaution to not drop any debris into your injection pump as this could cause severe damage to your fuel system.

We have found that it is best to first install your new plunger into the pump housing with the spring in the plunger. This helps alleviate the chance of you dropping the spring into the injection pump.

Finally, reinstall the old FSS by threading it back on. Be sure that the O-ring is seated properly to the FSS prior to threading it into the housing. Then, reconnect the wires to the FSS.
