In this picture the needle guide has 3 basic functions; to support the pintle in it's movement, to control the return rate, and also to control the allowed vertical movement of the pintle. If the tolerance is lost between the nozzle and guide, the pintle will stick open, foreign debris is often the cause. Removing material from the upper edge of the needle guide, also known as the stroke-limiting collar, will increase the allowable vertical movement. The pintle tip can also be ground to increase the dead volume in the nozzle tip if in a VCO style, or blind-hole if in a Sac style.

This picture shows a closer view of the tip style, this particular nozzle is a Sac style with cylindrical blind-hole.

Nice photo's of a injector taken apart.......Andy

There will be notes, when I get some more time...It may get a bit technical.

thats good. nice pics

Keep them coming,you can not get too technical for me.

What injector are you showing torn apart?.

Spare body I had laying around, but somehow I think you are interested in the nozzle, it is from a Cummins 5.9L application, soon to be sporting 8 spray orifices.
