    lly power loss

    Rather not go there man. Let's just say 1 yr ago I took it to the wrong guy and spend a few grand when it should have went to Jeffs shop to begin with. If any tuning or repair work In the future needs done then I know where to take it to. Gonna drive it now and be worry free for a change with it.

    lly power loss

    It's probably all in my head. I'm a paranoid person when something is broke or I feel it's not right. Had so many issues with this truck in 2 yrs. Had it fixed 1 yr ago and got back a mess. Should have took it to this shop the 1st time. No fear that it isn't going to start every time I get in it...

    lly power loss

    This wasn't suppose to turn into a bashing deal. I asked a question and that's it. Didn't mean for Jeff to have to defend his work in any way. I'm diesel dumb and he knows that. He knows what he told me about how it runs. Just felt sluggish down low to me now. He offered more power last night...

    lly power loss

    No he said if it never limped the tyranny before then I would be fine. When I asked about the power loss he said the truck runs great now and he could add power if I wanted but I was playing with fire with a stock trans. I hear my turbo spool just like before if that means anything. Maybe I...

    lly power loss

    The shop is a really big duramax shop that is highly recommended and does great work. The owner is who I talked to and also who worked on it. Said it runs great and didn't see where it had a power loss. I kinda know him personally and trust his opinion. But I know it's lost low end power. It...

    lly power loss

    Asked the shop tonight and he said it can happen. Said the old injectors tips are wore out and allow a little more fuel into cylinder. New injectors tips are a little smaller

    lly power loss

    Just had 8 new bosch injectors and new head gaskets done on my lly. Truck finally starts without cranking for 10 seconds and I'm not hating the truck anymore. But it has no power now, feels actually like my race trailer is hooked to it all the time. I read yes and no as being normal for a while...

    lly head gaskets

    So I soaked the cap and drive the truck about 18 miles and then checked the hose. It wasn't hard at all and the truck was up to temp. I will check it in the morning for pressure.

    lly head gaskets

    So my lly needs injectors, so I'm saving money to buy them. I will be honest that I'm not a diesel fan after knowing I have to buy 3k worth of injectors for my 1st diesel with 220k miles. Had gas trucks before this and never had an issue. So last week my dic says low coolent. So I put just a...
