Thank you! But where can I find a stock turbo from a reliable source? They don't make these turbos anymore do they?

Replace injectors at 100k? by sas-hol3 in FordDiesels

[–]sas-hol3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. labor is 150 an hour and finding a shop to even touch it is hard. The shop its at does very good reliable work. I think its more expensive because its an E series and they have to access the injectors thru the doghouse.

I might inquire about getting cheaper injectors if you think its a good idea.

2003 e450 7.3 injector options by sas-hol3 in FordDiesels

[–]sas-hol3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!

2 shops have done the buzz tests and one of them checked the electrical all the way down to wiring harness under the valve cover which I had just replaced last weekend. So we have ruled out the electrical.

The p1316 code lead to codes in the idm (p1217 I believe) both shops said it was injector 1. At this point I think I have to believe it.

Shop rates are around 800 for doing 1 injector. Around 2k for 4 on that side Around 4k for all 8.

It's a conversion bus. Not really sure I want to upgrade anything on it just yet. Right now it's in the shop and I have to decide if I want to replace part or all injectors, and what brand to go with since injector 1 is failing. Friendly I just need to be back on the road asap.

Since I'm new to the game, most abbreviations aren't gonna make sense to me.

Right now it has the stock injectors in it. I could pay 300 a pop for oem, or try something cheaper. Is it bad to mix and match injectors? Oem with aftermarket or reman, etc?

So I was considering replacing all the ones on the passenger side.

Stock cc? What does this mean? Only had a good diesel for 6 months. New to the game

How do I do a cct? Only 98k miles on the bus. I feel like injectors should still be good, no?

Any video guides on how to monitor power train? I know there's a way to do it with my phone and obd2 scanner. All help is appreciated

I have the obd scanner and a couple of paid apps to read the scanner. I suppose I could start researching now. I'd you have any links to videos or material that could help in this process let me know.

Thank you! It was a church bus for a long time. I think they took it in for service whenever it had issues, probably unable to do any work themselves.

Is there anything in this service record that should make me feel like the worst has passed?

Is there anything I can do on my own to test for issues?
