2. Follow the test plan prompts. At the conclusion of the test plan it will state one of the
following:
“This engine requires EU5 injectors”
Or
“This engine requires EU6 injectors”
Close the diagnostic session to transmit FASTA Data.
3. Create a PuMA Hotline case with “This engine requires EU5 injectors” or “This engine
requires EU6 injectors” in the subject line.
Explain in the case why you suspect the wrong injector may be installed in the engine and
supply the injector part number using the borescope. This information will assist the Hotline
specialist to verify the proper part number.
Submit the case and wait for a response.
The Hotline specialist will verify the proper injector part number for this vehicle and respond
to the case.
