Default Wish me luck!!!

My new injectors from Lincoln Diesel are here and it's time to get started. I can't wait to get this finished and get my truck back on the road. It's been setting for a few weeks. It's funny how you miss driving your favorite vehicle. Thanks 2500 Heavy Duty for a great write up. And thanks to all others who share valuable info. I'm new to this site but will definitely spend a lot of time learning more about my truck.

good luck. one thing i picked up that helps me with cleaning the injector cup bores is the rotary attachment so u can get deep in the bore with a cleaning bristle and it really gets the bores clean if u pull a cup especially on the #8



ive even had to use it to cut off a few bolts on the valve covers cause someone who worked on it beforehand stripped them

Well, my first snag!! After getting the garage ready and the truck pulled in on Friday night...... the sickness I battled all week caught up to me. I was in the bed most of the weekend. Oh well, hope that's not a sign of things to come. I will not be defeated!!!!!

Default The fun has begun

Well. I started the injector job today. I believe the worst part of the job will definetly be getting all the wiring harness and junk that's in the way off. I made it to that point on the passenger side. Now it's time to get down to business. Not sure how to attach, I hope it's the right size.
