Bad Injector

looks like I dropped another injector 95 f350 psd, was pulling out of a store and it started running like sh******t. Getting diagnostics tomorrow hopefully it's a sensor or somthing but probably not.

btw, I pulled out my fuel filter and looked at the bottom of the bowl and I could not believe the amount of crap in there. Blew it out with compressed air, and now my engine looks like I've been off roading.

I bet you it is just some under the valve cover wiring. It usually gets burnt. A code reader will tell you where to start.

Have you already replaced an injector?

I agree with ForemanES. Check all of your engine wiring harness connections and pins, VC gaskets connections and pins, and UVC harness's before replacing an injector.

Well you were right. You can send it off to beansdieselperformance.com and have them rebuild it for you. Did they run an injector buzz test?

Perfect time to build your own diy injectors and post results. One day I'm hoping to get the courage to try myself.

yes he ran a buzz test, I am trying to get up the nerve to do replace it my self. I found a place here in Orlando that will give me an exchange for $175 what do you guys think? who sells the diy kit? also I could use some good instructions for the injector replacement. Thank you all for your help.
