So I bought an '02 duramax almost 3 yrs ago. Great truck. Pulls my camper great. However it's developed a weird transmission issue mainly when it's cold. It's not repeatable. Add to that I took it in to have the rear half of the transfer case replaced and they made a comment that the injectors are ok but start saving my pennies. Since then I've noticed a few things that are starting to say " I need new injectors".

Delma: fix the truck with 260K miles and stilll have 260K truck, or sell it and buy an F-250 or excursion. I need the 9K towing capacity for my TT.

What would you do?????

 

if the truck is in really good shape and all you need is injector put them in.
unless your buying new or from somebody you really can trust who know what like of junk your buying looks good on the outside but junk on the inside my two cent. Injectors for that truck should only be about 2500 buck that's a cheap fix

 

Have you try running any injector cleaner in like stanadyne or some two stroke oil?
when the last time you changed your fuel filter?

 

I try and change my fuel filter every six months. I only average 3500 miles a year on the truck, probably not the greatest thing for a diesel. I've been getting a P1093 lately ( low fuel rail pressure). My cp3 is slowly dying or my injectors are returning to much fuel.

I run stanadyne every other fill up. Ran out a month ago though. Someone suggested I run a can of seaform to see if it helps.
