This genuine Nissan bolt is specifically used to fasten the diesel injection pump support bracket to the pump body. It is located underneath the main injection pump assembly on Nissan Patrol GU models equipped with the TD42 and TD42T engines. This is a critical fastener responsible for securing the heavy injection pump and preventing vibration.
Over time, during engine services or due to constant vibration and heat cycles, these bolts can become stretched, corroded, or lose their tensile strength. It is crucial to replace them during an injection pump replacement or engine rebuild to ensure a secure and reliable installation.
Failure to replace a fatigued or damaged bolt can lead to the injection pump bracket coming loose. This can cause excessive vibration, leading to fuel line cracks, damage to the injection pump's internal components, and potentially causing the pump timing to shift, which could result in catastrophic engine damage.
