What about that hot shot diesel cleaner I'm reading about. I know I have to replace the injectors. But could that help out some for a short time while I save money -

Picked truck up. Summary is... When hot- cranking pressure will ramp up slow to 1500 and fire. When cold- cranking pressure will ramp up slightly faster and fire. Injector balance rates were all within +/-2 Test drove truck and fuel Temps would climb to 160 within a few miles. Ramp pressure... -

Ok. I'm clueless man about diesels. Going to look at balance rates tomorrow. I know that's not ideal but maybe 1 or 2 will show like -7 or something. Then if they do then I'll do a return test on those ones. It's a local diesel shop where I work who is checking the balance rates for me. I'll... -

Yeah I will change them all probably after tax time. But just doing what ever is really bad right now should help the long cranking time. Probably no way to tell if head gaskets have been done yet is there? -

I had truck tested today and they told me it won't hold fuel pressure at idle. And fuel Temps were high. Said I need injectors. It hols pressure just above idle, they commanded max pressure and it would build 18k of the 23k it demanded. Low on cash I asked which ones do I need to replace. He... -

So I unhooked lift pump and put a fitting to connect the two n lines back together. Had a hard time getting it to fire after bleeding system. With truck running my stock filter housing plunger has tension on it it but with a little pressure I can slowly pushbutton down ones. It's not super easy... -

Well my battery guage on dash goes up above 14 volts as soon as the truck fires. It doesn't even stay low for a min like glow plugs are running. Hate to dump 300 bucks into batteries if that's not my issue -

Just had batteries tested. Both are 850 CCA batteries. 1 came back 12.13 volts and 586 cca. Other came back 12.11 volts and 618 cca. Said both needed charged, but they should have been fine in that they are always in truck right. Didn't buy new ones, he told me to charge them and bring them... -

No way to check pressure. He told me that it went straight to like 13000 or something when it cranked. That's crazy hight but I swear that's what he said unless I misunderstood completely -

Here's the story with it. Truck just shut off one cold day. Would not start for nothing without starting fluid. Had it towed and took it to a duramax guy that is highly recommended. He had it over a month, cause he was dragging his feet. He said my sending unit was bad. He replaced it and said... -

No codes at all. Truck has a ppe lift pump. I unhooked it a bleed the fuel system and the long crank I thought went away. But then it seemed to be right back so I think it was just a fluke. I had to use starting fluid last yr to get it to start when it was having a fuel issue last yr. Just a...
