Going to the shop...

Hey guys,
Well I've had my 06 for 4 months and put on 13,000 miles and today when I was on my home from Boston I noticed that I lost some power and I used way to much fuel. When I got out of the truck I could smell raw fuel in a big way! Sure enough the crank case is full of fuel and oil. So now it needs to go to the shop and hopefully get some new injectors. I hate when my trucks in the shop! Hopefully I get her back soon!
As far as symptoms goes I did have a pretty good injector tic for a couple of weeks. Funny thing the dealer said it didn't sound like an injector to him. He was sure it was the way that all (CUMMINGS) sounded!
See ya,
Topper

Mine went in a couple weeks ago for a #1 injector. Tomorrow it is going in for the other 5 injectors.

I had an injector nozzle leaking on me. No noise, but it would smoke pretty bad when I got on the throttle. It ended up melting my #3 piston and both intake valves on that cylinder. Take leaking injectors very serious, or it will cost you an engine.
