They wanted you to pay the cost of a mid level ford focus for a new engine???? Holy crap

 

Ouch. That sucks.

 

Injector Tip's breaking seem to be the common demise of the 6.0 from reading on here.
Is there a way to prevent this or catch it early

 

Buy a 7.3.. Sorry, had to.

 

Upgrade the injectors?

 

PFT listen to you guys...go to a Fummins! lol, what causes the tips to break?

 

Warren I would replace the injectors

 

It's not really that common. Generally, but not always, there are signs leading to the ultimate failure. We will often replace just the piston and head for people...

 

we're listening

 

Yeah what he said

Gerry,
I personally am NOT having any issues but it seems as if we've read this Injector Tip problem a few times recently (Chris & Sparky come to mind) if Iam not mistaken.

Iam just curious if the Injector had been showing signs of failure but was left alone, ultimately causing catastrophic failure OR does this just happen without warning

 

It happened to my wife going down the road with no apprent warning that she could see.





Well this turns into this >>>





And then this>>>>>>





The shop turns into this to find this>>>>>>





The tip ^^^^^^ in the piston.....





To end up with a shiny motor


I think I will be putting in new injectors every 100'000, this happened at 110'000

 

Damn that sucks, maybe the Tip's just get fatigued over time & now that I have like 126k maybe I should consider upgrading Injectors

I'll just tell the wife that we don't want this to happen so I need new "bigger" Injectors

155cc injectors

 

You're rolling the dice Warren, if you plan on keeping the truck, its peace of mind

 

Hey Warren...when you get ready to do those injectors PM me I have some information for you!!!!

Sarge

 

Its a small world after all... my fiance is from the town where Warren Diesel is located. It is a town of like 115 people lol.
