Signs You Need a Replacement

If your equipment is showing any of these symptoms, the injection pump may be the cause:

• Rough idle or misfire — Uneven fuel delivery from a worn injector causes the engine to shake at idle. On engines, this is often accompanied by a knocking sound under load.
• Black or white exhaust smoke — Black smoke means excess fuel; white smoke indicates incomplete combustion. Both point to injector spray pattern degradation.
• Loss of engine power — A single failing injector reduces cylinder output. Multi-cylinder engines lose noticeable power when one injector flows less than the rest.
• Increased fuel consumption — Poor atomization means the engine burns more fuel to produce the same power. Monitor your fuel burn rate as an early warning sign.
• Hard starting or no start — If the injector doesn’t deliver fuel on cranking, the cylinder won’t fire. This is especially common in cold weather with worn nozzles.
• Fuel in engine oil (dilution) — Fuel leaking past the injector seat seal contaminates the crankcase oil. If the oil level rises or smells of diesel, inspect the injectors immediately.

Replace as a Set

Replace all injectors as a set whenever possible. On engines, mixing old and new injectors creates uneven fuel delivery — the new injectors compensate for the worn ones, shortening their life. When installing, use new copper sealing washers and torque to the specification in the service manual. After installation, run the engine at idle for 5 minutes to bleed air from the fuel system, then check for leaks at each injector connection before putting the machine under load.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I cross-reference 0445010273 with 2004-2007?
Yes. Both 0445010273 and 2004-2007 are interchangeable OEM numbers for this part. They refer to the same component with the same specifications, just different part number revisions.

How do I check if my engine code (OM660) matches?
The engine code is stamped on a metal tag attached to the engine block, usually near the timing belt cover or on the cylinder head. Compare the code you find with the list above. Engine codes are 3 to 6 characters long.

My vehicle is a 2004 model – is it covered?
The compatibility range for this part includes 2004-2007. The 2004 model year falls within this range, but verify the engine code and body type match. Mid-year production changes sometimes mean two vehicles from the same model year use different parts.
