Angry Emergency!!!!!

Thought my truck was eating fuel and now I know why!!! Looked under truck and fuel was everywhere. Not the injector lines there is no fuel on the lines,heads or block fromm fuel filter up. Truck was running and shaking does anyone have any thoughts?? I think it might be the feed line due to truck running rough. Will be under truck tomorrow afternoon to investigate. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Leonard theres probably a gallon or so of diesel down eastern ave. Be careful!!

Check the fittings on the back of the filter, they might have come loose. If you need a hand tomorrow night let me know. You know this is kinda weird, I just had mine leaking Saturday night, a hole was rubbed in the line on mine. A guy I work with called me on Sunday and said he had a fuel leak on his 98 12V and wants me to look at it. Now you have a fuel leak somewhere, talk about a coincidence.

Ya Mark, hate to say it but you might have lost an injector. Check the oil to see if any is in there.

Dang man that sucks, I assume that it is still under warranty mileage wise. Oh, and don't go blaming us for the injector, we did not do it.

Sorry for that bad news Mark. Glad to hear the warranty is still good. What makes this happen? Too much pressure? Seems like the celebrity's dad had it happen several times and I know he only has a small pressure box I think on it. Seems like more pressure is the issue, or sub-standard injectors.

The injector bodies on the 04.5 are susposedly weaker than the newer one's.

Thats a fast turn around, I guess that they did not give you a hard time about it.
