LOOKS LIKE , there are two types listed for the mk7 2.2 - no sizes given, part numbers 1372386 and 1673999


https://www.catcar.info/ford/?lang=en&l ... g4NzkrMTMz


but on the custom 2.2, it only gives one part number and size at


M7 X 67MM

part number 1717583

https://www.catcar.info/ford/?lang=en&l ... gzNjcrMTMz


on the mk8 2.2 it gives one result - same size and part number as custom

so going by the car car info site

its: M7 X 67MM, part number 1717583 you'll be looking for.
barring its had an engine swap at some time

all the best.mark

I was under the impression that the two different bolt lengths are dependant on whether the injector clamp is the older, or the newer, (thicker) version 8)

1997 Mk5 SWB 115 Minibus 70ps Di (Gone, but not forgotten!)

Hi I have a 2015 custom 2.2 had awful problems with diesel leaking out the rocker cover, could it be I just need the updated clamps? Is that why they updated them? Thanks

The clamps had been known to break under the pressure of the compression trying to push the injector out of the cylinder. The new clamp was reinforced to stop that happening.

Do you know a part for that clamp? Else I might just put some sellotape over them to hold them down.

On the euro 4s the clamp was upgraded not heard of euro 5 clamp upgrades

Ah OK Andz :oops:

I thought that the upgraded clamps came out about 10 years ago, after Euro 5's were invented :? In that case, the numbers I have will be useless for the OP :(
