Unlike the DLLA series, the DSLA143P970 uses a Valve Covered Orifice (VCO) design – smaller sac volume = lower hydrocarbon emissions. Perfect for:

Cummins ISBe 4.5L / 5.9L (buses, trucks, school buses)

IVECO EuroCargo 3.9D–5.9D (2000‑2006)

Agrale‑Deutz agricultural equipment

Key specs:

Bosch No: 0 433 175 271

Injector assembly: 0 445 120 007

Solenoid: F 00R J02 697 / F 00R J00 339

In a common rail diesel injection system, the injector nozzle (also called the fuel nozzle tip) is the final and most critical component that determines how fuel enters the combustion chamber.

Even though it’s small in size, it performs three essential jobs:

🔹 Atomization It breaks high-pressure fuel (up to 2,500 bar) into ultra-fine droplets, ensuring better air–fuel mixing and efficient combustion.

🔹 Fuel Metering The nozzle controls how much fuel is delivered in each injection event, working together with ECU calibration and flow codes.

🔹 Sealing When closed, it prevents fuel leakage into the cylinder, avoiding dribbling, carbon buildup, and smoke issues.

In Bosch common rail systems, different nozzle models are designed for different engines and applications, such as:

Common Rail Injection Nozzle DLLA157P1425 for Mitsubishi Canter 4.9L 4M50 0445120049 Common Rail Injector Nozzle DLLA162P2160 for VW Audi 2.0TDI 0445110369 Common Rail Nozzle DLLA142P1607 for FIAT Injector 0445110276

Each nozzle is calibrated with a specific flow code and spray pattern—meaning even small differences can significantly affect engine performance, fuel economy, and emissions.

That’s why correct nozzle selection is critical in diesel injector repair and maintenance.

If you’re chasing rough idle, black smoke, or hard starts on a Cummins ISBe 4.5L / 5.9L (Euro III/IV) or a MAN TGL/TGM, stop guessing. Look at the injector stamping: DLLA148P1726.

This Bosch 5‑hole nozzle runs at 1,600 bar and belongs to injector assembly 0 445 120 105. Mix it up with a DLLA142P1709 (ISLe) or DLLA118P2203 (QSL9) and you’ll either under‑fuel or melt pistons – no joke.

Quick facts:

Flow code 1726 – mid range, perfect for 150‑240 HP

Return flow limit: ≤60 ml/min at idle

Common failure: carbon fouling from extended idle (school buses), needle seat wear, water damage

ISBe torque spec: hold‑down clamp 59 N·m – don’t use ISLe torque!

Replace all six as a set. Use a 1.0 mm copper gasket. And for Euro IV engines, don’t forget to reset trim codes with Cummins Insite – otherwise the ECU will hate you.
