Where can i get some good inexpesive injectors for my 03.I live in Idaho.

 

Are you looking for new or used. Either way you might take a look on Ebay

 

GOOD + INEXPENSIVE = NOWHERE!! Sorry.... it just came to mind...it's Friday!

 

try an auto wrecker locally, you never know you may get lucky and get a set.

 

are they re-buildable or past that point?

 

I dont know its at the shop he will get really into on monday. He scanned it and just told me that there are a couple that are bad. Are ebay ones safe to use has anyone used them?

I have dealt with a company called Pensacola diesel in Fla. 6.0 rebuilt injectors are $149 each.

 

RCD does good injectors..

 

Hi There,

Just sticking in my two cents (as usual)

The 6.0 has a problem with stiction which is what causes the injectors to fail (oil shearing due to high temps at the injector). We created Hot Shot's Secret as a way to correct the problem without needing to replace the injectors.

It was tested by International and shown that it corrected the problem 86% of the time and improved it for the remaining 14%.

Our customers report better performance, smoother idle, better MPG's, faster starts and no turbo lag etc...after just one treatment!

Used as a preventative at oil changes, Hot Shot's Secret helps keep your Power Stroke running well all year long.

Please see our website and feel free to call or email if you have questions.

Good Luck!

After 3 injectors replaced my mec.said that he put an additive "doc" made by BD and that he said it had to do with air getting in the oil system that fires the injectors and it starts to tear them up. Is that stuff kinda the same priciple?

 

Hi,

Good to hear from you.

I am going to post the article that we wrote regarding Hot Shot's Secret. It should give you a good idea on how our product achieves fixing the injector issue in the 6.0.


Hot Shot's Secret has finally solved the common and costly fuel injector problems diesel truck owners have lamented for years.


To increase the efficiency in modern diesel engines, manufacturers have increased the pressure at the tip of the injector. This increase provides for a better, more burn with added power. Older injectors would put out 1,200 psi at the injector tip but the new diesel engines put out 26,200 psi at the tip. To achieve this increase in pressure the manufacturers had to tighten the tolerance inside the injector. This increased the friction and temperature. The higher temperatures have a burning effect on the engine oil. A layer of oxidized oil and additives form, slowing down the injector and eventually stopping it altogether.


Injectors in the diesel truck engines have a high failure rate," says Chris Gabrelcik, lubrication engineer, CEO of Lubrication Specialties, Inc. and the creator of Hot Shot's Secret. "Injector issues cause slow start-up, rough idling, hesitation, and lack of power because the injectors aren't firing properly." Until now, owners had to replace their existing injectors, often spending up to $2,500.00, with no guarantee that the problem would not occur in the future.


An amazing 86% of the time, Hot Shot's Secret solves the problem completely, and for the other 14% it has made a significant improvement. "We've got a money back guarantee and if it doesn't work, we'll credit you," says Gabrelcik, who acknowledges the fact that in some instances the product might not work because of other mechanical failures.

Originally created for International Truck and Engine, Hot Shot's Secret is an additive made from a combination of detergents and dispersants. Once added to the vehicle’s crankcase, Hot Shot's Secret removes build-up, the coking and varnishing left behind from overheating of the engine’s oil. "It's the only thing you can put in your engine that will clean it out and actually solve the problem," says Gabrelcik, who spent two years sending dozens of different formulas around the country to be tested in various terrain and weather conditions. The final product was rolled out in November 2005.

In addition to the improved injector performance, Hot Shot’s Secret’s formula will also clean the deposits in the engine and turbo and will fortify existing oil, thus helping it to work more effectively. It only takes 64 ounces of chemical to clean 100,000 miles of build-up. 32 ounces every 3-4 oil changes will prevent the problem from recurring. Lubrication Specialties has customers on record with 500,000 miles on their trucks and are still using the original set of injectors.

Gabrelcik, who has been in the industry for over 14 years, founded Lubrication Specialties in 1997. He has extensive experience working with vibration analysis, oil reclamation, and lubrication consulting with countless national and local companies.
