    I’m sure the injector harness was a pricey part. I’ve driven art of 12.7s which were great engines. I’ve often wondered why the 14.0L was never very popular.

      Wayne Swicegood when the first 14L (2004-2007) came out they weren’t that good. Expensive EGR valve right under the turbo, V-Pod that controlled the turbo actuator. Not a good design. 2008-2009 we’re pretty good. I have a few customers who are right at 1,000,000 miles with just the right maintenance being done and no inframe.

      I'm over a million on a 2005 14 liter now and having injector 1 coming back on my diagnostic. They are great motors I bought a chip to permanently shut the EGR .. Do you HAVE to enter the injector code into the computer? Can you not just swap it out without messing with the computer?

      jose delgado you are welcome, to program the injector code you need to have the Diagnostic Link software from Detroit. The software makes troubleshooting fault codes a lot easier. You can make parameter changes to speed, increase or decrease. Injector cutout test. Worth having.

    • @CarlosDieselElectric
      @CarlosDieselElectric  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you are just going to replace the gasket and the harness then you should be fine with just removing the engine brakes (Jake brakes). You don’t have to rotate the engine.
      You only have to rotate the engine if you are replacing an injector or adjusting valves. Other than that just remove, install, torque down the Jake brakes and install the harness.

    Is it necessary to drain coolant and purge diesel out of the fuel line before removal of the injector? I heard there's a possibility that diesel or coolant might leak into the combustion chamber upon removal of the injector.

    • @CarlosDieselElectric
      @CarlosDieselElectric  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      David Tsang David Tsang no need to drain coolant. The injector cups will hold the coolant in its place. You can remove the valve or check valve on the series 60 to allow the fuel drain from the system. Then pull the injector and proceed with replacement or just pull the injector and replace it without. I have done it both ways. How many injectors are you replacing?

    • @CarlosDieselElectric
      @CarlosDieselElectric  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Black smoke could be too much fuel, have your mechanic perform a tube up on the valves and injectors. You will need height tool for the injector. The valve cover will dictate which one to use. If that doesn’t work, you might want to have the injectors bench tested or replaced.

      Yes, drain coolant from radiator and from the side of the engine block.
      The side of the engine block will get everything out which is the best way to go. Especially since you want all the coolant out of the cylinder head.
      Look for the lowest point to drain.

    • @CarlosDieselElectric
      @CarlosDieselElectric  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      14L does have an adjustment but not like the 12.7L
      To adjust the injector, you have to bottom out the adjustment screw, then back it off 3/4 turn.
      When you bottom out the screw, don’t force it any further.

    not too thorough...For us doing it for the first time- Do we have to set the injector height? Special tool for injector height? Do you have to do a full overhead? Or just torque things back down "As it was" ? You can really confuse beginners here without the important steps and cause uis interference issues and broken valves and pistons

    • @CarlosDieselElectric
      @CarlosDieselElectric  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Injector replacement can be done different ways. I have seen where mechanics just pull the bad injector out and then put everything back without adjusting the injector.
      The correct way, IMO, is to start at TDC and go from there.
      Or start at the injector that is bad. There is NO height injector tool UNLESS you are working on a 12.7L then you have to have one of 3 tools needed. The valve will dictate which tool to use. But I am assuming you have a 14L Detroit Series 60, so in this case NO tool is needed. You tighten the adjusting bolt until it bottoms the plunger out and gets hard to turn, and then you back it off counterclockwise 3/4 of a turn then lock the nut. Then put it all back together and torque it properly.
