Okay so I just landed a job starting this coming monday so I gotta get the Cummins on the road to start off with any of you guys know of a company that carries injectors in the edmonton area besides Cummins western canada cause they said they would be two weeks or so in shipping and I have to have the truck working for monday. Secondly any one able to give me a hand with getting the rig on the road I have a buddy who has a shop in the town I live in so I can do work on it there but I kinda want a guy who has 1st gen experience working on my truck cause I really can't mess this up otherwise I'd do the work all myself basically so if any of you have some time to waste email me or call my email is VIDIKS78FORDF250@GMAIL.COM and my phone is 780-608-0279 and I am 45 mins east of Edmonton on Hi-way 14 thanks again guys.

 

Call GCL, they are a Bosch shop and should carry that stuff. If they don't have it, you could start calling the performance shops. Probably pay more for them, but if they are in stock, it might be worth it.

If you're looking for a 1st gen guy in your neck of the woods, look up Luke (nosparkplugs). He's a good guy, and helped out another 1st gen that had some issues not too long ago. He's in St. Albert last I heard.

 

Thanks Tate I will get in touch with GCL and what is their number if you happen to have it and I will look luke up.

Thanks man

 

What was on your list of to-dos? I may have some time depending on how my calls go in the next day or so.

 

I need to install upper and lower b joints front passenger brake needs some attention tranny plug is broken so my tranny isn't shifting properly and I have to install a fuel filter and change my oil and I might have to do injectors not sure yet I am really really really hoping not and that would be awesome if you could give me a hand with the rig

 

Ha.. Ball joints.. I just did that last weekend.. I had done about 3 sets in my 89 and 93 over the years..

I happen to have a spare of each the fuel and oil filter in my box of goodies. Also does the shop have air? I have a portable 18 CFM gas compressor.

 

I have all the filters and oil on hand and the valve cover gaskets cause they are leaking and the shop does have air and thats great I was hoping someone had done it recently and knew the exacts on doing a good job of it.

 

The most common error on the 2wd trucks is..

The top Ball Joint is THREADED into the upper A arm, not pressed. If you press it out, you buy another A-Arm as you bugger the threads. Loc-tite is required for that one. The bottom one is pressed out.

 

Man am I glad I asked the question that sure saved me some headaches and thanks again Tate for reccomending GCL they not only have the injectors I need they have them at a lower price if I do end up needing them

 

I have a set of 12V 215, you just need the bushings. They are used, so they will be cheap.

I had a set of VE injectors, but I just sent a set of non IC VE injectors to SDX a few weeks ago. GCL is expensive, you can buy a set of SDX sticks cheaper than the GCL stockers.

 

The 92 will have the 7mm injector head on it, as opposed to the 9mm head of the non IC engines. The 215's would work.

 

Well from what nosparkplugs said its likely not my injectors and Lil Dog do you know when you can maybe give me a hand? cause then I can plan it a little better

 

I thought all VE injectors had 12mm connections on top, as opposed to the 14mm of the p-pump injectors?
