    LB7: Good injectors....FINALLY!!!!!

    Good news! Pensacola Fuel Injection reimbersed me for the labor for installing the second set of injectors. It wasn't what I paid, but it was close enough to tell me that they were willing to back their products up. Thumbs up to Pensacola! It sucked that I had to do a second set, but the way I...

    LB7: Good injectors....FINALLY!!!!!

    I will definately keep you all posted on my outcome. As well known as Pensacola is, I would think they would want to keep a good reputation for satisfying customers. I don't want any hard feelings, and like i said, I would be more than happy to keep doing business with them if they take care of...

    LB7: Good injectors....FINALLY!!!!!

    I hear ya. I know it says in their warranty info that they are not responsible for labor, but if they sent me bad parts from the beginning, you would think they would be wanting to make it right with me. I don't want to say anything bad about them, and would like to keep doing business with them...

    LB7: Good injectors....FINALLY!!!!!

    that's kind of what I was thinking. It was very clear that it was the injectors bad, and more than one. It smoked like a freight train and would only run on 6 cylinders at the most at one time. Don't get me wrong, I'm not really that mad about it at this point, but if they don't want to help...

    LB7: Good injectors....FINALLY!!!!!

    You heard me, good ones finally! What a deal. Long story short... My truck (01 LB7) was doing the classic smoking. Got worse and worse. Got the money saved up for injectors, so I decided on Pensacola Fuel Injection as the supplier. I went through a local diesel mechanic as well. Well, got the...

    Question: fuel stained paint???

    Hey guys. Anyone ever tried to remove diesel fuel stains from paint? Is it possible? I have an 01 white silverado, and apparantly the previous owner was pretty sloppy when he filled the fuel tank. The trim is yellow, so I ripped it off and the paint underneath is stained yellow really bad. Is...

    LB7: No trouble codes??????

    Ok, here's one for you. Long story short....(01 dmax) was smoking at idle. Ran fairly good, just liked to smoke. SO, new injectors from Pensacola diesel. Installed, along with 2 new cups. Runs like CRAPOLA!! Raw fuel coming out the exhaust, missing, spuddering. So, hooked the Tech 2 up, PCM...

    LB7: Cup came out with injector..........

    By the way, thanks for the help. It's nice to have someone with experiance to talk to instead of just swinging for the fences. Ha. I'm going to be bald yet by the time this thing runs right again! :eek:

    LB7: Cup came out with injector..........

    I hear you. It's just the way my luck goes. And to think, I could have bought a cummins....... NOT! I guess it's back to square one. Wiring, check the oil, go from there. Do you think re-flashing the PCM could help?

    LB7: Cup came out with injector..........

    Actually, no. It smelled like unburnt diesel i guess. Not sure what that smells like. Ha. Seems like with that much compression it would blow back in the cooling system rather than come into the cylinder though..... Here's another little problem. The PCM keeps kicking the Tech 2 out while we...

    LB7: Cup came out with injector..........

    But, wouldn't an injector hanging open trigger a low rail pressure code and shut that bank down??

    LB7: Cup came out with injector..........

    He says he thinks it's injectors hanging open. It spit a bunch of liquid out of the exhaust and he thinks it's diesel fuel, because over the weekend it started to dry up, and he said antifreeze would not dry up. HMMM......

    Info: Diesel/Fuel hose....difference????

    Quick question... My hoses from the fuel filter are cracked and crappy looking...is this normal? Should I replace, or am I taking a chance on a future fuel leak if I don't? My mechanic tells me that there is a difference between regular fuel line hose and diesel fuel hose. Is this more/less...
