Where can I find a set of energy cells for 4214 heads? What is the best way to get them out? My service manual talks about some kind of tool. What would be a good price for a set? Thanks, David

David,

The innermost part of the energy cell is threaded one of two sizes ( 3/4 x16 or 7/8 x 14
I think ) , clean the carbon out of the hole and
run a tap in to clean the threads . Cut threads on a piece of good bar stock to make a puller . It is best that you don't use punch and hammer. Unless they have had water they usually don't
go bad .

If you can find them nowhere else, try heavy equipment wrecking yards that have old equipment.
Some of the old AC dozers used them, There should be nothing wrong with the ones you have unless they are rusted out or mangled on the ends beyond repair from improper removal attempts. As for removal without the tool, there are two ways. First if the heads are on the engine, remove the cap from one at a time (ONE ONLY PLEASE)and hold an empty 5 Gallon bucket over the hole and have someone crank the engine and the cell will blow out into the bucket. Do not put your hand on the bottom of the bucket as it hits the bottom pretty hard, (voice of experience here). The other way is if the heads are off, in that case remove the injector and use a hard wooden dowl rounded kind of like a pencil shape only flat on the end to drive out the cell, which is directly across the head from the injector. If that won't do it you will have to use a soft brass rod shaped as above,( the shape dos'nt have to match the cell exactly, only not flat on the end as it will try to dig into the cell, the ends of the cells are cone shaped and you do not want to beat them up with a steel rod (there is that voice of experience again, although I was able to fix them.)
