Injectors
Hey guys I'm finally finishing my light rebuild, I've ran into my next red light. i have an injector that the nozzle is broken off on, I'm trying to decide if i should buy another original or if i should upgrade. the problem is I'm currently on a really limited budget. is there anyone who might have an old set off o.e. or stage one's they wouldn't mind parting with? also in my other thread i mentioned power loss and white smoke erupting out of the blue i think i found the general problem with this issue. On my wiring harness 3 out of the 4 connecters that hooks to the vc gasket have the outside prong on one side disintegrated. how much do the harness's cost on average and what would cause this to happen?

On your injectors talk to Jim at Rosewood diesel his stageI's budget build are pretty cheap
The valve cover set is about 90 a side give or take.
Most of the time when the plugs burn ita from bad glow plugs or bad connections to the glow plugs

Yes, the harness under the valve cover. It's not an unheard of problem. Be sure to closely inspect the pins in the valve cover too. If the harness is burnt, the pins may be also. If you put a new harness on burnt pins, you may damage the new harness.

The harness's under the vc are fine, it's the external harness that hook into all the sensors, gpr, alt, and such where the injector and glow plug feed are burnt and looking at my valve cover gaskets there going to need replaced too.

If your Valve cover gaskets are burnt to then you might as well change eveything plugs, VC, under VC harness, and test your glow plugs to
