This tool is a "must have" for anyone who works on V6 Sprinter common rail fuel systems. When a Sprinter engine will not start, one of the first things to check is fuel rail pressure. If the pressure is less than spec, one of the most likely causes is a defective injector that is returning excess fuel back to the tank. A return flow volume test will verify if excessive return flow is the problem. This cap is then used to identify the individual cylinder that is at fault. The injection line is removed for one cylinder at a time and the cap installed on the fuel rail in place of the injection line. When the cylinder with the offending injector is capped, the rail pressure will rise and the truck will start. In some cases it can be highly advantageous to have multiple caps, because several injectors that return slightly too much fuel can have the same effect as a single injector with extremely high return flow.

A block off tool can also be used temporarily in the case of a broken injection line or failed injector and is a good thing to have in your emergency kit. When an injector malfunctions on a common rail engine damage to a piston or cylinder can occur very rapidly. When a common rail engine begins to misfire and blow excessive white smoke, the owner is highly advised to turn the engine off and call a tow truck to prevent major engine damage from occurring. An alternative would be to temporarily cap the injector for that cylinder for a short period.

Designed and Made with pride in the USA!



When working on high pressure fuel systems, always educate yourself first by reading appropriate factory service information, use common sense, and, above all, WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES!

If a delay occurs that is longer than would normally be considered commercially acceptable, we will attempt to contact you. Please be aware that time zones and scheduling may not allow same-day shipping in some cases. If a shipment is especially urgent, please contact us, and we will do our best to accommodate your needs - next day options may be available.. In addition to allowing at least 24 hours for shipment, please allow 2 - 3 days for Priority mail, 1 - 2 days for Express mail, and 1 - 5 days for UPS. Shipping costs are available to you through Ebay before bidding. If you do not find the shipping cost acceptable, please do not bid. We also think shipping cost are high - but unfortunately, cannot control them. Giving us a low rating because of shipping costs is unkind and does not benefit anyone.

International Orders:
When placing an order from outside the USA, please use caution when selecting your shipping option. First class mail is an economy service and may take 30 days or more in some instances. First class mail is also not trackable. Priority mail International averages 7 - 10 days, and Express 3 - 5 days. These times will vary by country and can be longer if there are customs delays.
We are a legitimate business and will NOT falsify customs documents - please do not ask.

Returns
Each item in our Ebay store has its own return policy. Please take a moment to read it. With rare exceptions in case of a gross error on our part, shipping costs (either original or return) are NOT refundable. (Local auto parts stores will not pay your travel costs to return a part either.) Shipping costs will be deducted from refunds on "free shipping" items.

Applications
We guarantee our parts to be as described by part number, picture, and verbiage. While we do our best, vehicle applications, however, simply cannot be guaranteed. In most cases, we do not generate application lists. It is the nature of the auto parts business that, in rare cases, a part will not be correct for a certain vehicle even though it "should" fit. This may occur because of errors on application lists, mid-year production changes, changes to the vehicle since it was built, the fact that a car was not built for the US market, etc. It is the buyer's final responsibility to visually verify that the part they are purchasing is correct for their vehicle. If a part does not fit your vehicle, this does not mean the part is "not as described."

Payment
We accept Paypal as well as all major credit card directly through Ebay. If you need other payment options, please contact us.

Feedback
If you have a problem with an item purchased from us, please let us know before leaving feedback and we will work toward an equitable resolution. We really appreciate 5 star seller ratings in every category – if we can do something to improve toward meeting this goal, please let us know - we do value customer input. If you are prone to hostility in the event of a problem, please do not purchase here. Problems can be solved much more easily when civility is kept intact.
