    I replaced #5 injector connector today and little no difference. I have checked the wires on the bracket above the ficm and can't find any bare wires. It goes like this every time I start it, I've done this numerous times. Can't even get it to run up to full operating temp. I fire it up and it...

    I've considered that but I would like to make sure the injectors are indeed the problem first

    I would like to figure out the problem to make it run right first

    I'm starting to think that piece is a homemade injector hold down because where the center bolt threads into the injector body there is a nut that looks like it holds down the injector

    It has the 2 outside bolts going into the valve cover and the center bolt is going into the body of the injector. It's on #7 the passenger side rear injector

    It also appears that the black gooey injector line has rubbed throught the plastic split loom on the harness

    Just so we're clear I was talking about the bare piece of flat steel under the black painted bracket. I wish I could've gotten a better picture of it

    Well I took an extra good look at the truck today. Looks like #8 injector has been replaced along with the plug, plus there is a weird almost home made bracket or something under it kinda hard to see in the photo. It's thrown a code for 8 a time or two. Also #4 has weird black sludge around the...

    Went through and ice picked all injector plugs besides #6 and #5 I think. It's still early lol. Once warmed up it will miss intermittently on 1 cylinder with a very light haze. Then kick an injector control circuit code on 1. If you Rev it lightly you can hear an injector knock and then it will...

    Didn't want to post a paragraph but I wanted to tell as many details as I could. Since this run its thrown different injector control circuit codes every time. Just one though never multiple codes at a time. It also started smoking again and misfiring. Starts right up and has no blowby

    I've only owned 1st gen cummins trucks and a 1st gen powerstroke ( that I am still currently driving). Sold my beloved first gen dually and picked up an 04 ccsb 2500hd with the lly duramax. The previous owner swapped a cab off of an lb7 truck after a tree fell on it. All was good then he started...
