Fuel Injectors
I have 118,000 miles on a 99 Ford F450 and I have replaced fuel injectors twice and I believe they are about to go again. I took it in to the Dealer just under 100,000 to get them replaced under warranty and I was looking power and it was running rough at idle. Every charactistic of Fuel injectors going. I was told they could not duplicate my problem to they sent me off. Now I am past my warranty and they are going to stop anyday. Anyone have any similar problems. Anyone have any suggestions. I am in the California area.
Also has anyone ever had to replace the front stablizer bar
Not having much luck . But I love my Truck.
Thanks for any advice

Injectors should normally last well over 100k. Before you condemn the injectors try having the dealer check for any IDM codes and reflash the ECM the latest calibration.
It could also be the o-rings in the IPC - Injection Pressure Controller in the high pressure oil pump. Or the IPC itself. That would cause a rough idle, and loss of power as well. And it would do it intermittantly.
The CPS - Cam Position Sensor was also notorious on those years for failing prematurely.
Hate to say it, but have you tried different dealers? Over here the dealers hire a lot of diesel techs that are like dutch light bulbs - not too bright.

Thank you so much. Yes I was not impressed by the lack of knowledge at the dealer I went to. I have moved to central California hopefully they are a bit more experienced with Diesel engines.
Thanks for the information I will have them check it out .
