surface.
NOTE
Use a nylon brush if deposits are hard to remove.

special tool MD998442, move the plunger through 5 to
10 strokes until it slides smoothly. In addition to eliminating
stiffness in the plunger, this operation will remove dirty

adjuster’s functionality may be lost if the air bleed
wire is pushed in hard.
NOTE
If the plunger remains stiff or the mechanism appears
otherwise abnormal, replace the lash adjuster.
(4) Remove the lash adjuster from the container. Then, push
down the steel ball gently and push the plunger to eliminate
diesel fuel from the pressure chamber.
