Anyways long story short I'm going to put it back together try to fire it and if that don't work go after the uvc's next. If that don't work I'm stuck, I'll have to find a trailer so I can get it up there.

Shoot me your address via PM and I will head out that way sunday. Going to change my oil this afternoon and wash the trailer.

Dont worry about the fuel, company gas card takes care of that...

Pulled the valve covers off and found that the #2 injector is puking oil out of the deflector sheild while cranking over the motor and the rest are not which is leaving the hpop system open and not allowing the hpop system to build more than 100 psi in return will not allow the pcm to let the injectors do the intial fire. can I rebuild these injectors or only replace them? whats the cost for the special tools compared to buying a new injector?

I would send that injector to Swamps or the likes and have them go thru it. Or you could just buy one injector for about $200 bucks.

Check e-bay... sometimes you can get a used set for about $200-$300 and then have some others to get modded when the HP bug bites!

I do not mess with PSD injector internals... No thank you!


Here is a video of what I was talking about on sunday... You can see the oil coming out of the bottom of the injector body...


Thats all it takes to have a no start situation.
