Ok got my truck back Friday, they put new bousch injectors and my fuel mileage has dropped alot! adjusted the valves too, Is this something to expect or do they require some break in time???

 

Stock injectors? Who did the install?

That is not right. I would take it back and complain of reduced fuel mileage and have them pulled and checked.

 

Well I filled the tank and am going to check it by hand calculation before I call them. According to the overhead before I was showing 22-23 on winter fuel ( I know that isn't accurate) hand calculated it was showing a steady 18 on winter fuel. According to the over head I am getting 15 to 16. The place that installed them is a performance injection shop local that mainly builds injectors and fuel systems for pro pulling tractors. They have done work for several of my good friends and they have had no complaints. Yes they put stock injectors since I told them I had no plans(cash) to do any performance upgrades for sometime.

 

Ok checked the mileage twice hand calcualated and it matched the overhead with .2 mpg!! Is it possible the overhead is actually reading right after the install of the new injectors?? running steady 17.5 on highway and that is pretty close to what it was doing before on this winter fuel.

 

What shop in mid mo? I'm in sedalia and i am now shoppin for a tranny- 2nd gear is GONE.

 

I just replaced my injectors and the overhead is now the same as hand calculated.

 

were did you get the injectors from ?

 

My overhead was off by about 5-6mpg. when i did some work on my truck and had to pull the battery terminals off now the overhead is almost dead on. within about .5mpg. i think over months/years the overhead gets thrown way off until you disconnect batteries and it resets it.

 

I got the injectors done at Harts Diesel in Fayette MO. They really only do pulling tractors and farm tractors. They have several dodge trucks so they work on others sometimes when they have time but they are a very busy shop! they had to order the injectors in and they are stock Bosch that are new not remans.

As far as trannys, not sure they do that work there nedz19.
