Injector life

[S.Morris]

Guaging from our trucks up here, if you get to 6000hrs its time to make arrangements

I agree with that. I'd also replace them as a set. My point was just that if you have never had any problems with them, and don't have any problems with any of them now you probably won't have any problems over the next 20,000 miles or so. But even if you only had 100,000 miles on the truck, the chance is always present that injectors can fail. Based on my experiences, I'd definitely take at least one fuel and oil filter along, two if you can plus the oil and the tools to do a roadside change. And based on a recent experience of mine, you should definitely take at least one replacement serpentine belt with you--and the ratchet or wrench with the 1/2" drive, of course. It's one of the easiest roadside repairs there is, and you're dead in the water without it.

I would include a spare solenoid for an injector. They can be changed out quickly if you have the right tools. I've had them fail, figured out how to fix and can be going again quickly from break down. I have posted what you need on TDR. I don't go anywhere without one which I'd give to other Dodge owners dead on the road. I have in my boonie box also a MIF codes printout of them to help know what's going on. I'm anal to the fact I carry an extra injector also and stuff to switch that too. I agree on having a spare belt and make sure your spare fuses are included. You could also consider an add on fuel filter to at least 3 microns. I installed one between stock filter and CP3 pump just to keep it clean and going. Good luck. Herb
