I am the shop.

A kid has this truck... he wants to make it just happy enough to sell it so he can get a 7.3...

So...
What if anything does an onboard air compressor have to do with an injector r&r?

Thinking im going to pass on working on this 6 leaker... not worth the headache.

Thanks for the input guys.

Then why are you asking what the labor times are? You should already have that information.

Doing an injector on a 6.0 is an easy $$$$ maker.

Not sure why you would pass up 5 hours of labor and $300 of parts money just because...

Exactly

Most don't have that compressor thing



And that's for the Explanation MIKE I take it those are more for commercial trucks??

That compressor would be more for a commercial truck such as a service truck.

70-150 CFM compressors. Looks like a good way to eliminate a tow behind compressor.
