- HI!
Today I am replacing the stock fuel injectors on a 95 Ram 2500 Cummins Turbo Diesel with a set of 300HP Bosch units from Pure Diesel Power.
Easy 50 HP gain..
Thanks for watching! - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Tighten the injector retainer nut to 44 ft. lbs. (60 Nm).Tighten the banjo fitting bolt to 6 ft. lbs. (8 Nm). Tighten the fuel line fittings to 22 ft. lbs. (30 Nm).
Thanks..
tighten them all until they crack and then a back off a quarter turn... its some fuel lines and and injectors not head studs on a 2000hp pull truck you dont need to torque specs... not to mention you cant get a socket on most of it to use a torque wrenche anyway
i guess Im asking randomly but does any of you know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb forgot the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Brentley Randy Instablaster ;)
@Cullen Alfonso i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
I will be attempting this exact job on my 6BTA 5.9 Marine engines, thanks for video, will certainly help me out.
The very first thing I do before doing any engine work is remove the negative battery cables. Just good practice. Don't wanna do any unintended welding under the hood!
That is a VERY good point. Thanks for the reminder.
nice video! I'm a Dmax guy but me and my son are thinking of getting a Cummins project truck... this looks A Whole LOT easier than the injector job we did on my son's 2004 LB7 Dmax! Thank you for posting... I'm now a new subscriber... 👍
+Paul Jordan Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Just checked out some of your videos. Very nice truck. I have a similar Cummins except mines a short bed single cab.
VERY CLEAR NO BULL VIDEO ,THX.
15:25 sounds like a air raid siren in the background lol 😂
Thanks my problem was to pull injectors out now with the 13/16 sokect was very simple,
Thanks for replying I wouldn't get anything bigger if anything closer to "stock" I just liked that these injectors were a little more HP and nothing crazy. When I talked to the guys at pure diesel They said they sold quite a few of these for this type of set up and haven't had any problems. These guys on the forum think I'm an absolute idiot but w/e. I called and talked to the shop that rebuilt the transmission due to more research I've done ppl where saying the TC could be locking/not but he said if that was the case my trans temp would sky rocket very quickly to 250+ and I'm running 150-180 on the highway only problem is when in "town" stop and go it climbs to 200+ quickly which would be a problem in traffic pulling a trailer in the middle of summer. I will probably find a certified shop and get it diagnosed via a computer to see if that shows anything I'm not seeing as he said there can be about 40 other thing not directly related to the trans but overall could be effect it.
Thanks! Going to change mine now
Aloha sir. I agree on the harbor freight nitrile gloves. I usually get the 9 mil black ones. Got my finger a little too close too the nozzle of a 3200 psi power washer. Had a huge blister(looked like a burn) glove was unscathed.also use them to wipe the end of the soldering iron, never melt. Probably made of radioactive mercuric asbestos or something, but they do hold up well...also, well made video.good lighting, steady camera, good narration with proper volume levels.liked and subscribed.
Thanks for the kind words!
Great to see you back.. Was going to ask how the old truck is running but it looks to be in great shape..
+ItsAlwaysRusty Fair shape.. needs rockers, cab corners and door bottoms, but she also is 20 years old now. I should be busy in the spring.
Thanks for stopping by!
Cylinder number two’s injector is leaking for me so I’m gonna be doing this exact very thing thanks for the video.
Looks like a fairly straightforward job. Love the Cummins sound :)
+Velvethamma Great bang for the buck too!
Thanks for watching!
Good video
Muy buen video señor
great vid
Aaron Boodoosingh thanks
nice job
+doug janusch Thanks!
I loved the sound of those tornado sirens in the background hahaha
We call them fire engines here in Jersey...
Those are no fire engines ha. Unless "Jersey" has some retarded sirens for their fire engines.
30:48 cracked me up. Hilarious.
I guess I never asked when I brought it in to my diesel mechanic I had I'm valve lash and time he said it was way off and he just set it back to stock. I have read a couple places that it may need to be turned up a little bit...what are your thoughts.
Where does the dust seal go? On top of the injector hold down nut? or on the inside of it where it sets on the metal spring/washer that sits around the middle of the injector?
Good to see you back on TH-cam Carl. Been wondering what the hell happened to you haha. Hope everything is well.
+Minitrucker231 Thanks.. I've been very busy with everyday life and haven't had much inspiration to video, my buddy at work gave me a kick in the ass and told me to turn the camera back on. I appreciate that you guys still find this stuff interesting..
Thanks for watching!
For me anything that involves car/truck/suv/boat/RV/motorcycle repair from the most basic maintenance to the bigger jobs like engine replacement/swaps, transmission repairs etc etc I always find interesting. Cars in general have been a big part of my life and always will be. I'm just glad your buddy gave you that swift kick in the ass to get back in front of the camera and start making videos again. Have a good one my friend and l'm looking forward to more videos from you.
Bill Mesker aka Minitrucker231
+Minitrucker231 Very well put.
What wrench did you use for the injectors? Ratchet wrench ?
Now the injector puller tool (2018) is about $30 on Amazon or $50 at NAPA. You could get it cheaper ($25 through “Part and Tool LLC) if you don’t need it through Prime.
Thanks
Were dose the rubber o ring first up from tip or second ring up
Good to see you. How's the leaf vac? That was a nice set of build videos.
+Ernie A The leaf vac still going strong... actually about to go outside and use it one last time for the season.
Thanks for watching!
I was curious I'm having major MPG issues and i also replaced my injectors with these in my 12v. I'm on. Couple of cummins forums and they are all saying these injectors as wrong and are marine grade with the wrong spray pattern for the bowl. Mine seems to run great and didn't affect my milage as far as any worse and really not better as far as mpg goes. Curious if you had any problems thoughts or ideas thank you and I enjoy the videos
My truck runs great, only complaint (and my low stall converter is most of the problem) is cold running idle, in gear she needs help until the motor gets a little heat in her. Mileage is about the same getting 18 combined highway/city driving. Power wise I would never go back to the stock ones. I honestly would not expect bigger injectors to improve mileage. What is your pump timing set at?
Thanks for watching and the nice comments.
how long do injectors last?
hey broncocarl92, how are those bosch injectors working out fer ya?
Johnny Appleseed very well thanks.. she loads up a little when sitting at a long stop light but the power increase is worth a little smoke.
Was wondering where you have been, thought something may have happened to you.Missed your posts.
+akpd1 Thanks.. been busy with life lol.
Nicely done ! Did the new injectors make a difference in power? did U do any other work since the Swap? I recently did a V-10 to 96 Cummins swap & completely rebuilt the entire truck plus body work & paint. I have been having a fuel pressure problem ,I have replaced the entire fuel feed system I think to day after doing every thing I can think including feeding fuel from a direct line into a 5 gallon can. I got a defective fuel pressure relief valve the 2nd 1 . only 134,000 miles on the engine. max pressure 7-12lbs running down the road . I just ordered a Tork Tools adjustable 1 .I cant recall how many times I have gotten BAD parts brand new in my life. Thanks for doing this video. U can see what I did on my channel under Cummins, it took over 1 year Thanks.
+TheKilog69 Thanks..
Yes there is quite a noticeable difference in performance, better throttle response off the line and while cruising. As far as other work since the swap I made some videos.. I also built a bullet proof transmission and added a FASS system this year but did not do any videos on that. The FASS eliminated all the stock fuel system parts and I would highly recommend that to any diesel truck owner.
Thanks for watching and the comments. I will check out your videos.
@@Broncocarl92 How is that Fass system holding up 5 years later
@@tomhutchins1046 still working well.
why didnt you show how u pit the injector together after u took the first one out.
The problem is the first buddy you loan it to turn's out to be the new owner.lol Great to know about the grove ball Ive done 100's of old 6.9 and 7.3 int v8's but never had to do a cummins. Did it feel better?
yes she feels a lot better seems like it'll carry a burnout forever now. Thanks for watching buddy.
Looking at my Dad's 1994 12v. There is a 4th line with the back set of 3 fuel lines that crosses across the top of the engine and routes down the injector side of the engine. One side routes somewhere under the turbo, the other side routes to the back of the P pump. What is this line? It is not there in this video (or any others I have seen) I can't find a diagram that includes this line either.
I believe that is the boost reference line. The reason you don't see it on my engine is because I have a BD Super B turbo and the waste gate line is integral to the turbo housing. The boost line that goes to the P pump is connected from the driver side of the intake manifold. Hope that helps!
Thanks for the help! Found a service manual online which refers to it as the wastegate line. Looks like it is right in line with what you described. Runs from the wastegate to the AFC.
mine was crusty as can be 4/6 of the injectors spun in the bore when loosening the retaining nut and the retaining nuts are seized to the injector body, of course when you put the lug nut on them the injector spins but i was able to get the lug nut on them all a few threads and the hammer and pry on that to get them loose without damaging the injector
i suppose the solution to this would be to hold the flats at the top of the injector with a wrench and loosen the hold down with a wrench, but with the coolant lines in the way there isnt much room to do this and mine were so crusty it took ill i could muster on a 3ft breaker bar to get them loose i would have stripped them with a wrench if itd even fit on there and no leverage
I have a 94 with 200K that runs great so I'm wondering why. How do you know it's time to install new injectors?
+Harry Mingo Mainly for a performance upgrade but I also had a problem with it loading up at idle. The power increase was worth it and it doesn't load up anymore. My motor has about 170k on it but I'm pretty sure it has a lot more hours than mileage on it.
Thanks for watching!
May also have grey smoke at idle. Use a IR temp gun to find the cooler cylinder(s).
@@Broncocarl92 What does "loading up" mean?
Matthew too much fuel at idle
Hey YTGG Stranger! How have you been? How long did it take you to do the whole job? Were you impressed with the performance results?
I hope you are doing well buddy!
tomduncan1970 hey Tom good to hear from you too! I can't remember exactly how long it took... with the filming you know everything takes three times as long LOL. I would say maybe it's a two hour job. I did notice a very decent power increase. I also noticed that in the winter time she became a real cold-blooded bitch and I have to increase the idle slightly otherwise the low stall converter likes to make the engine stop when it's cold. Overall I'm happy with the results. I have since replaced the turbo with a BD super B and downpipe so power really isn't an issue anymore. Thanks for stopping by and take care brother.
I'll et you know how it goes. I didn't want to go crazy so I just went with a Stage 1 @ 40-60 HP GAIN. I'm just looking for a workhorse. Not some coal roller or tire smoker.
I just want to pull a train down the tracks if it becomes necessary... lol
Always good to watch a pro, such as yourself, work!!!! Take care Brother!!!
that was great thank you! My 97 ram 2500 is very hard starting, smokes white smoke at start up, lobes and chugs. Does this sound like an injector problem? Thanks.
Sorry for some reason I just saw this comment now. I don't know if you got this sorted out yet but if you haven't what is your pump timing set at?
ok I watched this video a while ago and changed my injectors and primed the system and everything was fine. now a few months later, I noticed my third injector is leaking from the top where you screw that nut down from the fuel line onto the injector. my thinking is... the fuel line isn't lined up exactly to the top of the injector therefore its not getting fuel and leaking out. the reason I think this is because I torqued everything again and it was all good, even loosened and re tightened everything and when I did that I noticed the bolt on the fuel line was like a hair off from fitting perfect onto the top of the injector. so idk if im right or not but I will look this weekend, just would appreciate some feedback on what you guys think.
Jake Getz is it possible you cracked the top of the line? if you want to eliminate the possibility of the line or the injector I would recommend to swap that injector with either number 4 or number 2 see if the league moves. did you remove the lines when you change the injectors or did you just move them to the side? the lines don't like being bent to the side but just why I remove them completely. hope that helps let me know if you need any more information. have a Happy Thanksgiving.
I took the lines completely off when I changed the injectors. after I placed the lines back on it was months until I noticed a leak so I doubt they just cracked randomly, but who knows lol. can you adjust the fuel lines at all? I know theyre all like bolted together I was thinking about loosening the bolt where the lines are connected and try and just move it a little bit to see if it fits better. it just felt like the threads on that not from the fuel line was hitting the top thread on the injector, as if it wasn't lined up perfectly somehow
Any certain reason why your replacing all the injectors
horsepower increase as mentioned in video description.
Is the same method on a 1996 ?
yes
Hear the tornado siren going off
fire whistle.
Great video, but that's no 95 model. I notice it has hyrdoboost which came out in 1997.
Gary Humphrey I converted it to hydroboost also made a video. If we want to get technical about it that truck actually used to be a V-10 also did a video series.. thanks for watching and the comment.
Wow. Mind blown, why did you choose to go with hydroboost?
I had a vacuum leak while plowing snow, which gave me practically no brakes.. I also wanted to improve stopping power which the conversion helped greatly.
ยากได้ 4 bt
and I have a 97 12 valve btw
I have aquired a cummins 6bt 130 hp ...Low state of tune but in really good condition and ultra low hours ( 1500 ) ...Would a simple injector change up the power ...Its a 98 engine
what pump are you running
I believe it is a Bosch Ve pump ...Data plate on the engine confirms it is 96 kw @ 2500 rpm
I would probably start with a fuel pin in that pump. Pure diesel does sell them.
feedback please!!!VVVVVVVVVVVVV
