About 5240160153 - Injector Sleeve
Published catalog details are identification references. They do not establish current stock, supplied condition, or confirmed fitment for your engine.
5240160153 is an injector sleeve catalogued for MTU 4000 engines. The catalog unit weight is 0.188 kg, which we use to estimate freight before quoting.
Technical Notes: Fuel system
The fuel system meters and delivers fuel at the pressure and timing the combustion process needs. Small wear in injectors, pumps, or valves shows up as higher fuel consumption, smoke, uneven cylinder temperatures, or rough running long before a complete failure.
Series 4000 engines use common-rail fuel injection, with high rail pressures and injectors that are sensitive to fuel cleanliness. Fuel filtration and high-pressure line condition deserve particular attention.
When This Type of Part Is Usually Replaced
- exhaust temperatures differ noticeably between cylinders
- black smoke, hard starting, or knocking points to injection problems
- fuel leaks appear at high-pressure lines, unions, or pump seals
Checks Before Ordering
- Check the maintenance documentation on reusing high-pressure lines; deformed sealing cones on refitted lines are a common leak source
- Injectors should be ordered with the correct seals and copper rings for the cylinder head
- Exchange (EX-prefixed) injectors and pumps are a practical option when new units have long lead times

Engine-series references do not confirm every installation. Final fitment of 5240160153 depends on the full engine serial number and assembly position.
Common Replacement Scenarios
This part is commonly replaced when:
- combustion quality, fuel delivery, compression, or exhaust temperature is outside normal range
- installation position and matched mating parts must be checked before replacement
- overhaul buyers need verified valve, nozzle, injector, or pump references before dispatch
Usually Ordered with Injector Sleeve
Injectors are refitted with new sealing rings, and the high-pressure connection is checked at the same time. These MTU 4000 references are commonly checked in the same job; each still needs its own fitment check.
