Holy **** dude! That's nuts!

Gotta ask, how didn't you notice the massive amounts of unburnt fuel pouring out the pipe? or the completely **** fuel range you'd see from injectors at WFO all the time?

Just for information purposes, it was only after sending my newly installed injectors to a laboratory for bench testing to prove they were flawed..., According to BOSCH Corp, 70% of re man injectors in the marketplace are FLWAED. BEWARE!!

Turns out 4 of my 6 newly purchased re man injectors were stuck wide open dumping 17times the recommended levels of fuel in my cylinders burning up all the oil, rings,etc. then blowing the motor!! BEWARE of RE MAN's. BUY OEM BOSCH only!! Its worth the extra $$.

Hopefully, Maybe I can save someone else about $10,000 on a motor job.

So since I settled and got paid for damages,.... I guess you can say I did Answer That door BIG REDD!! LOL walked right in and caused a RUCKUS!
and this is why I'm glad I don't have a common rail...

impossible for a vp44 to overfuel a cylinder bad enough to destroy the motor. worst it can do is make a bunch of smoke and run like crap...
