EGT’s running higher

367k so far. Have used a cleaner occasionally, but not regularly. Use additives pretty regular during winter for prevention of gelling.

Just turning 55K with no problems. Installed GDP kit and Smarty at about 35K. Made my last payment in Feb. Seems to run even stronger since paid off.

127K+ on Stockers, running Banks from 3-98k, since w/Edge Juice. No problems with them. Filter change every 10k. 50K+ with heavy towing at altitude (5-7000). Getting ready for some DDP 90hp after the SBC FE gets put in. :-laf
 
I posted earlier that I had 367k miles on original injectors - knew I was tempting fate. Started having a miss at 372k, so had injectors checked. Had one bad injector, one marginal injector, and the other four were good. Replaced two injectors.

106,000 miles and I believe I have some trouble as fuel is getting in my oil. I now have 3mic filter and always run fuel conditioner. I sure the truck had issues when I bought it in Dec.
 
125k and no major issues. Run an occasional does of injector cleaner. Like others have stated, I get the occasional wierd running syndrome, but it's not that bad. It could be something else other than injectors too!

I've run pressure boxes at least 1/2 of those miles.
 
91,000 and it is in the shop as we speak getting six new injectors. 2 are bad, and 2 are marginal... . The dealer and tech are very cool, and told me that they always push DC to replace all six when they do injectors. Long story short, all six will be new in a few days.
 
I have 108k on my stockers. Have run an EZ/TST for 60k. Now I have a Smarty. I've been having some odd injector rattles and occasional rough idle/miss for a while. Waiting for some Flux 1's now.

They pulled mine and found that #5 was low on fuel delivery and cleaned it. Brought back into spec and reinstalled. The rest of the injectors tested ok. So far it looks like no fuel in my oil. I will keep a close eye on it.
 
Just got mine back from F1 a week or so ago. 66,000 miles. They all checked out good. Added Flux 1 nozzles.
 
Got about 6 miles on the injectors in my 03. Of course, I just finished changing them tonight :-laf



On my last set, I made it about 98,000 miles before I began having long-cranking problems. The dealer swapped only two injectors because they said STAR wouldn't let them order more than two at a time. They told me the work was warrantied and if I had any more problems, to bring it back and they'd take care of it.



Sure. :rolleyes: At 100,500 miles, the old truck had starting issues once again. The dealer wouldn't even look at it. They said 10 seconds is the normal cranking time for a Cummins. Gee, do you think I'll ever buy another truck from them?



I just bought a reman set and installed them. Hopefully, I'm good for another 100K. Although it cost me some $$, there's nothing like knowing exactly how the work was done and having confidence in the truck when I'm miles from home.
