Had the local Diesel fuel shop here in Dallas adjust my injectors.

The bill was $111.70 for 6 injectors.

The receipt reads clean an replace gaskets. Nothing mentioned about adjusting the injectors or specs.

The injectors have the 150 hp nozzles and since I had the head off, of my diesel I decided it would prob be a good idea to get the injectors adjusted.

So I took the injectors to ABLE Fuel in Lewisville,TX and asked them to set the bar around 262 to 295 or to there best judgement.
I didn't want to go to high on the BAR.

So when I picked up the injectors today 8-09-2016 I had no proof that they were adjusted except just the mechanic telling me that Yeah he watched one of the other mechanics who did them.

Would have been a little nice to at least see something on the receipt that stated injector adjustment.

I really do not like having to ask or lead the witness and only get a verbal of what was actually done.

I would not refer ABLE fuel in Lewisville,TX to anyone wanting work done.

Would have been nice to have a spec sheet of what settings were.


If you do not mind handing over cash and only getting a verbal explanation of what was done then feel free for using them.

It does not seem right that a customer has to ask what was the BAR set at? Who did the work?
How many times did the injectors have to opened up to get right?

This is a Diesel injection fuel shop. The questions I had to ask is there normal shop talk lingo and should have been easily explained to the customer without the customer having to dig and ask what was done. I do not feel I should have had to ask these questions.

As a 32 year mechanic myself this type of complacency is alarming and a potential red flag for a job that was not done.

For what its worth this has been my experience.

If you have any advice to the contrary then please feel free to advise.
