#Re: TD4 Fuel pressure sensor confusion
Hi guys. Exactly the same happened to me, fuel ****ing everywhere after installing. Just one question do I need some sort of special socket to gain access to#fuel pressure sensor#as my sockets are not deep enough to use? Manage to install it with some pliers... Really knew it wasn't going to work but was the only tool I had that would "suffice". I did remove the cover but was still hidden under 4 pipes.
Please help!
Thanks.

#Re: TD4 Fuel pressure sensor confusion
I know this is an old thread, but as I replaced my#fuel railpressure sensor yesterday I thought I would take some pictures to show the difference in the attenuator length.
Old sensor and attenuator is on the left of each picture. You can just see the original crush washer on the original sensor.#
To summarise the process:
Remove all the usual hoses and plastic gubbins. You may also want to remove the EGR as it makes it a lot easier to get to the sensor.Disconnect sensor from harnessundo sensorundo retaining nutuse magnet to remove original, shorter attenuatorfit new, longer attenuatorfit retaining nut, nip up.fit crush washer on new, shorter sensor.*carefully* insert sensor, making sure you don't drop or dislodge the washer.tighten sensor. You will feel it tighten, then "give" as the crush washer deforms. At this point be careful not to give it the "full Garth....argh" treatment - it needs to be tight, not split in two#Reconnect harness, refit all the plastic gubbins, check all your hoses (don't want to go out for a test drive and blow a hose off...... that would be embarrassing).
