Thanks guys

Its just one injector.....or maybe a connector issue on the passenger side bank???? Checked the drivers side (because it was the easiest) and the motor draws down when I unplug each injector. It is running rich, idles bad, smoke ....yada yada. I am gonna go ahead and order 8 new injectors...

Oh...I ain't over servicing, I just decided to change to to synthetic midstream. I am not as much of a worry wort as I seem. It's not that I can't afford to fix my truck in general...real bad timing right now, after Christmas, new plasma getting ruined, and some other stuff. I am familiar with...

This I do know. I have had it for 5k miles, already changed oil twice, did complete tranny fluid change and filter after I had it a week, all other filters have been changed twice, and I am not hard on the truck. When spring / summer gets here I need this thing to pull a big ass 5th wheel, so...

I hope.............it's been a bad week............year

I have only had this thing a few months. You learn as you go. I love my truck & I have acquaintances that have them, and a couple guys I know work on them for a living. It would appear that the longevity of these motors comes at a hefty price. They may go 500k, but takes many $$$$$ to get there...

In these injectors? The solenoid? O rings? something internal? or just any and all. I have seen videos of guys cleaning them, new o rings etc. Way cheaper than replacing them......but it seems like that might be a waste of time in certain applications, but you won't know until you do all...

Thanks The rebuild thing is what I would lean toward eventually. I can get 1 r/b several places for 130-175 minus core. I am pretty sure it's #8. It always clacked, now it doesn't, and the bad idle and sickly sweet rich white smoke leads me that way. I havent really had time to do anything to it...

My first diesel, 2001 f250....160k, bought it with 155k. I dont think any injectors have been replaced. I would like to replace them all, along with new gaskets/harnesses.....aint gonna happen: Spent too much money at Christmas, and my two year old grandson just FUBARED my two month old 60 inch...

Thanks. I got it back in. Adjusted the drivers side all way out and looked in there, to see that the white studs actually go inside the tiny hole in those red cervo motor boots. Took some doing but when I got them in the mirror did just press on

It is a power mirror, and I am not sure about those white studs. They came out of the red rubber boots, so I want to make sure I dont mess up a motor or something Thanks

Sorry if this is redundant, but I did do a search on here, and on line in general, and can't find it. Some tutorial with big pictures & not many words would be great, kind of like a DR Seuss book This is a power mirror. How do you get the mirror glass back in?.... Nothing is broken, the little...

Diesel Kleen, when I don't feel like waiting for Opti-lube XPD to come in. Other than lubricity both are supposed to be pretty fair injector cleaners.

That is EXACTLY what mine is doing. Seemed to be running fine: BUT,,,,made a detector, hooked it up and checked. 1) I had a leak in the right plenum boot. 2)I had a worse leak in the left plenum boot. 3) I had a leak in the bottom hot air side I/C boot 4) I had a worse leak in the TOP...

I think I am just gonna replace all of them anyway. They are probably originals

I will.....haven't gotten a detector made yet. Wondering , by chance if a wastegate could be the problem. Not sure what to check in the interim, other that just rendering the wastegate inoperative for a test drive or something. As relatively simple as the may be, there's way more to know than I do.

100 hp tune, 01/f250, straight exhaust, tymar type intake. Wastegate is unplugged. Engine was warm, but not really up to operating temp, I was checking something else (annoying exhaust rattle somewhere) Boost would get 22-24, then when at full operating temp, couldn't make more than 17 for any...

Crankcase ventilation obstruction?

Read some stuff in car forums about this. But, a turbo is a turbo...more or less. Questions posed about why neutral revving builds no boost.......No load. Load equals more fuel, more fuel means more exhaust pressure, more exhaust pressure = more boost. What I still don't understand, is why...

I just know only basic turbo stuff...... so basically the turbo only makes boost under load.....correct? At 70 mph unloaded, I show no boost, meaning to me, in layman's terms, that the natural intake is equal to or more than the turbo puts out. Right? Wrong?...??? The turbo is just sort of...
