Default new injectors What now?

So I know there are 1000000001 posts about the lb7 injectors. But I just had mine replaced, and I want to know what I should do now to help prevent injector failure? I'm running opti lube in my fuel. What else should I do? Lift pump? Additional fuel filters? Thanks

i hooked up a racor fuel filter under my truck, it took me a 1/2 hour, it has a clear bowl on the bottom so you can see if theres dirt or water in it and a plug you just turn and it drains out on the ground found it on ebay, some old guy made a video on youtube on the instal check it out!

Thanks for the input. But I'm thinking I'm going to put in a air dog 2. Is there anything special I need to buy in order to install an air dog lift pump? Or can I just buy it and install it?

An air dog or fass helps them out, but nothing fixes the problem.


Ready to be back in a truck
