🔍 Key Concepts

• Location of item #16 relative to the injector and the hold-down bolt • How spring (Belleville) washers behave when heated/cooled compared to solid spacers • Why injector hold-down force must remain within a narrow range during engine operation

💭 Think About

• Look at where the stack of spring washers sits in the assembly: Is it in direct contact with fuel, combustion gas, or the hold-down bolt? What does that suggest about its job? • Think about what happens to the cylinder head, injector body, and hold‑down bolt as the engine heats up and cools down. Which part grows longer the most, and how could a stack of spring washers compensate for that? • Which choice describes a function that a stack of flexible washers on a bolt can realistically perform, versus something that would require a hydraulic device or measurement tool?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which component the washers actually bear against: are they in the fuel passage, combustion space, or on the injector hold‑down bolt? • Ask whether the function described would require the washers to be exposed directly to fuel pressure pulses or combustion pressure, or only to bolt tension and thermal movement. • Check which option describes a function related to maintaining clamping force/preload on the injector rather than measuring or absorbing fluid pressure.
