Question: LB7 Injectors

[nickyreno]

Im going to be needing injectors for my lb7 here in a bit. Im out of warranty for them. I need an opinion on remanufactured injectors. Has anyone used them? I found some for $165 a piece

I don't know mutch about buying new injectors for them but don't forget the old addage, "You get what you pay for"

Yeah, except it should have been 200,000 and NO age limit. Mine is 2 months out of warranty, 150,000 miles, and smokes at idle. I'M SCREWED. Finally got enough money to trade for a decent used duramax, THEN find out all the bad news on the injector issues. What a deal.

Same here. I feel like a three legged dog in a wind storm.

I have used both reman and new.They are all subject to fail, at anytime.

$165 is a steal.

Running clean fuel with an additive seems to help extend their life.

Suck's you are out of waranty

I heard a rumor they extened the warranty to 10 years 300K... is this a sham?

I think that is a Negative on the extension?

What should I do upgrade-wise?

Yes your over the 7 years. If you want info on your truck post the vin number in the vin check area and we will run it for you.

Actually, its the in service date, not the build date.

Most all injectors are remans. Just make sure you get Bosch Remans not some done by Joe company.
