The Conversation Pit
This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it!

I get to take this one back apart since the guy brought his own injectors from NAPA....

#2 overfueling.

GRAND. I won't have that injector until Tuesday....and it just has to be on the hard side (even bank).

If once isn't bad enough, twice certainly sucks.

Were your fuel trims out, puffing black smoke at idle?

Slight knock at idle and 13% balance rate on that hole (when the rest were + or - 1).

Not acceptable. Runs like a mad chief though which is better than I can say than it did before. Anything over 1/4 APP and the thing would start frickin' rattling to beat the band and smoke out both lanes.

After the first half dozen, you'll get it down to 5 hours.

I got this one buttoned up this afternoon. It's amazing how these trucks even run when the inlets get clogged up (by the way, you ain't got nothin' on the last two sets I've done).

I have only done a couple D-Max injector changes so far (thank goodness), but I was still able to beat book time.

Now if only there was a better tool for popping the injectors out I could save a ton of time. That stupid OTC tool and a screwdriver cannot be the most efficient way of doing it.

I am surprised it ran as well as it did, only complaint on my RO was a haze at idle, otherwise ran fine.
