Metering actuator question... - Waterloo - 10-17-2019

Putting the truck together, and noticed the metering actuator window, that little plastic bubble is cracked and it looked like a bit of fuel had dripped out of it. Is this something that I have to replace or what? I searched all over quick serve, nothing about this window/bubble being damaged. Advice please.

You got a pic Waterloo? I don't have an answer but I'm also not sure what your referring to.

It's the clear price on actuators facing you when hoods open bout a half in round clear price that tends to look like it has an air bubble in it.

This on an 870 or just 871 ?


RE: Metering actuator question... - Lonestar10 - 10-17-2019

870 871 both use same actuators but loo has 871

Yep, that wax cover, one has a tiny nick in it, just wondering if this is anything to be concerned with.

I tend to believe eventually, it would begin to suck air into fuel system.

If this is a possible issue down the line, the knick is very small, anything to patch it with? Maybe liquid electrical tape? Or something like a gel superglue? Gorilla tape? LOL

unless it is leaking fuel, I would not worry about it. Maybe put a touch of silicone in it to keep dirt out of it. It is just a dust cover for the coil, does not seal anything normally.
