Injector Poll

I'm going to see if this will work.

Out of the people who have had injector problems, which injector's have you had go bad.

Just rolled over to 47000 this morning. No injectors yet, of course i've only had it for the last 5000 miles. Previous owner might have replaced some.

55k for me with no injector issues. 1 can of seafoam every 10k in the filter housing keeps the injector knock gremlins away.

Stanadyne Perf Formula every tank and Seafoam ever so often and 0 injector probs . I always try to use the gassers for short trips and always give her a good workout to raise temps and burn that nasty carbon off .

Replaced all 6---at 299,000 miles. Don't think I would have had to do it then except for a series of problems with the high pressure relief valve. Replaced 3 in 5 months.

Well I use Stanadyne every tank and the dealer just called. His quote was your injectors are leaking. I dont know how many but I am only at 15,000 miles.

None. Truck's at 46K, 5K by me, and I have the previous maintainance history. It's had a leaking CP3 replaced, but no lift pump and no injectors.

By the way, my shop mechanic told me that there's a Cummins TSB to move the lift pump to the frame rails. Supposedly discussed on Turbo Diesel Registry. Hmm...
