  • Hello Guys! This is not a comprehensive look at failing CR injectors, but this is a great look at some early symptoms of failing injectors. This is a truck that I know the background on pretty well and have done a lot of work on over the past 10 years. Heck, not only did I do this injector swap, I did the last set of injectors about 120 - 130k ago too. This truck has always been run with a Baldwin 5 micron filter. If you need one for your truck cause you don't have a aftermarket 2 micron filter on there, consider helping out the channel by buying one through out affiliate link below! It doesn't cost you extra, but it does help support making more videos for the channel!
    Again!!! Extra Warning here!!! There are too many possible ways for CR injectors to fail, so please don't risk a healthy motor with a set of bad injectors. Sometimes they fail slowly and sometimes the die in a blaze of ROD throwing glory!!! Don't let that be you! Pay attention and get good quality injectors in your motor, then feed them well filtered fuel!
    Oh yeah, here's that affiliate link to the Baldwin PF9777 filters I mentioned above...

    So the symptom you are demonstrating is what is commonly called "rail hang", it is a condition where the rail pressure does not drop when you let off of the throttle. Regardless of the cause which is most always excessive return from the injectors I will address the effect.
    The algorithm that controls system rail pressure via the FCA, which is actually named the mprop by Bosch is operating in the upper control range of the PWM signal. In simple terms the control amount is incremental and if you could monitor this you would see that it is likely maxed out by the requested rail pressure, so therefore incrementally in a count down from say a max 255 or whatever back to desired pressure will take a longer time to increment through. The PID settings in the ECM are pretty slow to respond (increment or decrement) based upon the calibration.
    What is happening is the CP3 is having to provide essentially its maximum output as it is a variable displacement pump, via the stroking of the mprop, so if it is running essentially wide open, and then the request is idle output, it takes longer for the pump to reduce its output which is evident and observable by looking at a mismatch between desired and actual pressures.
    Further the degradation of the injectors could cause additional fuel to be injected as can be realized by doing a SOI test. Backleak/return should always be checked, but you like others do not have actual testing parameters that are accurate to follow, tools do exist to do accurate non-intrusive testing.

      Thanks for the comment Motorsport diesel. You have a wonderful explanation and we appreciate your adding to the collective knowledge base here. You are correct in understand the Bosch Common rail system and what causes "rail hang" in a normal situation. We appreciate all comments here that are constructive, but just so that someone doesn't smoke their motor thinking that their "rail hang" is normal, I should add that all of these injectors were sent off, tested, and failed. We purchased a new set of injectors from Industrial Injection and installed them. No other fuel system modifications were made at the time of repair and the "rail hang" returned to what is actually normal for a Common Rail Cummins. So again for those working on their trucks, if you let off of the gas, get your foot on the brake, and your motor still hasn't come down on the RPMs and is still actively pulling against the brakes, that is NOT normal rail hang.

    For the past couple weeks my '03 3rd Gen will cut-out and blow white/gray smoke whenever I get on the pedal "somewhat" aggressively a/k/a not "passing a car" aggresive, just medium-ish throttle input. However, if I go easy on the pedal, I can keep the cut-out issue from happening and the truck continues to avg 17+ mpg around town. That said, I did notice the fuel pressure reading on my Quadzilla iQuad is reading in the 50s (vs the normal 10-12 psi) which I originally figured was nothing more than a bad Quadzilla lift pump pressure gauge sensor, however, now I'm not so sure and thinking the excessive lift-pump pressure may be a sign of something more ominous, such as a bad "open" injector back-feeding pressure into the rail(?) If anyone has any thoughts on what might be going, by all means, please let know... thanks!

    My 2004.5 vin C
    325/600
    Has what feels like and sounds like a rod knock.
    Under 1000 miles on a rebuilt block, head, turbo, injectors. 100% stock everything.
    The knock is intermittent and very difficult to replicate sometimes. It does it at 1500-1700 rpm while cruising lightly if I feather the throttle to accelerate a bit. That's the only way it'll do it.
    Is this a sign of a bad injector?
    I've been to 5 diesel shops and they still can't nail it.

    I purchased my 06 back 2014 and as soon I got back in SCarolina the injectors failed. Put a set of remans in (I treat my fuel every fill up with optilube XPD) and now I have 130,000 miles on the odo. My question is when should I start looking to have a set of injectors in? What brand of injectors( how much) and should I go with remans or new injectors. thanks

    I bought a 2006 single cab 4x4 5.9 with 6 speed that had about 265k on it, I don't drive her very much, 5 years later only has 292k.... no idea how long those injectors have been in there. I do a new Baldwin filter every 2500 miles, and I add Hotshot Secret fuel additive every fill up. Almost no sign of them being bad as far as I can tell, and yet, they are on my mind every time I light it up. Injectors are the Killer Dowel Pin of the otherwise awesome 5.9 24v Common Rail lol

    Got an 06 with 229K miles with no blowby or oil leaks. I don't drive it much but starting to notice a light black puff of smoke at start up for a second or so. I have a MM3 with custom tunes, but really don't use it since it causes it to smoke a little and it sounds like it's pinging (normal?). I don't know if the injectors are original or not and thinking about replacing them. What are your thoughts on Big Bang Injectors?

    • @70440charger
      @70440charger  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi there! If you don't have blow by at 229k, you have won the lottery! I really love these truck, but rings and bad injectors have killed a ton of motors! It's possible that it has stock injectors, but more than likely, they have been swapped.
      Any change you have a video of it starting that you can link us to? Who wrote the mm3 tune, and do you trust them? Does it do the puff both with the tune and without it? Do you think you could capture the pinging sound on camera? There is a condition called fuel knock that is sometimes associated with injectors that are dying to bad programming, but I don't have a video right this second thay I can send you to so that you can compare sounds. If you have a video of what yours sounds like, send it our way.
      And BBI is a pretty good group to work with, if you have the $$$. Again, if there is room in the budget, I have really liked working with exergy and Torque Diesel Motorsports. TDM does a lot of injectors for some of the other people, and is one of the few who has the tools to actually properly rebuild a CR injector.
      Hope that helps some and let us know how it goes!

      Hey Vision, Thanks for the comment and sorry to hear about the trouble! Just in case its helpful, I wanted to add that sometimes there are other things that can contribute to this, such as APPS sensors and FCA's (as others have commented on here) but this is a good thing to keep in mind when doing diagnostics. I couldn't capture it well here, but typically if it is the injectors, you should usually notice a little increase in soot/smoke/ or unburn fuel smell while observing the RPM coming down normally. When you pair all of those observation together, then you have a much better picture of what is actually going on.

    I have some white smoke at start up. Goes away after 30 seconds. Never did that before owned the truck two years now. 04.5 truck. About 190k on it. Seams a tad choppy at idle for that 30 seconds to me Drive it and it seams fine as far as power and responsiveness. No noticeable difference in anything but that. Good coolant level and oil looks mint. No programmer on the truck to read much.
    I’m super scared to drive it right now as it’s never done that before. Short of buying a programmer to read rates and or rail pressure and stuff. Does this sound like injector symptoms to you? I’ll do that rev test in the morning see if it’s dragged out like your video.

    • @70440charger
      @70440charger  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks so much for stopping by exclamatiokumar. Have you tried looking for fuel leaks question? The white smoke that you're talking about happens quite frequently when there is an air leak in the system. A fuel pressure Guage up near the pump will help check. If it is at the head of the system and it fluctuates, then there is air in the system. Cause air compresses and fuel doesn't! Let us know what you find.

    Just put on a cold air intake, from dead stock truck. Only 160k miles on the truck, whenever I get into the top end it seems like the injectors are starting to stick after adding better airflow from the cold air intake, will update if there is further problems. 🥲 also just ordered a MM3 from 5.9diesel so hopefully I’m not gonna be dropping another 3k on some 25-50% injectors 😭

      I always start by asking the super simple question. Have you checked for proper fuel supply and pressure to the pump, have you checked the fuel filter, and have you done a boost leak? As a second follow on question, do you have a scanner that will check for deep codes that the truck may be throwing? I say that cause we worked on a 2014 that had an active air system and never threw a check engine code, but was a dog. It was a sensor related to the active air and tied into the Map and IAT sensor. I can't remember all the details, but before you go there, i would start super simple! Hope something in there might be helpful! Good luck and let us know how it goes!

    On your 12 valve swapped 3rd gen how did you run the throttle cable. I got an 04.5 and it just has an electric pedal with just wires going under the hood that just stuck an injector and torched a cylinder pretty bad. Been contemplating a 12 valve swap

    • @70440charger
      @70440charger  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      So if you have the Electric pedal you have to swap it for a gas pedal or an 03-04 pedal. Once you do that then you can just use the standard throttle cable for the 99-04 trucks. The swap is NOT quick. Lots of people make the assumption that just because a 12v (p pump swapped 24v as well) will start and run just by lifting up on the fuel shut off, that it will be a quick deal. Well, while that is true, it will be a truck that is worthless to drive and a hassle to start and stop and will not have any of the factory feel. Then thats where people start hacking things up instead of doing it right the first time! It may sound like I am trying to talk you out of it, but I am not.... I have just gotten too many phone calls over the years from people who hate their swapped trucks and when I start digging into how they did the build 9/10 times they hacked the crap out of their truck. I loved my swapped trucks and am working on the next one right now. Wouldn't have it any differently. But I just want you to have eyes wide open as you are going into it, if you do!

Supposed to have a flash tune on it but the guy turned out to be a scam artist so I basically had to rebuild the whole truck myself. Only thing left from him isn't the turbo and the tune (witch I'm looking into EFI live currently) when redoing the truck I checked the turbo and the shaft seems tight with no play and didn't see any sign of oil on either the intake or exhaust side. I also recently put a new CCV filter in. I check it today and it was still good, not a lot of blow by. Last thing I did was put a fass fuel system on it (100gph) it started around that time(maybe alil after) interning side note. I found out my trucks been running without the fass system due to a blown relay for a few months now. I recently caught it and fixed it but the smoke continues. It's really strange cuz it will only smoke 1 time per drive. When it goes from cold to hot it will blow smoke once the engine is to temp and after I let of the gas it takes a second or 2 to start then once I press the break is seems to smoke more. If I accelerate it clears up. Then once it happens it will not smoke again till it's shut off and cooked down all the way. I was thinking maybe an injector is sticking open or something idk. It's been driving me nuts. Thanks for the response btw much appreciated!

    Where can I get this filter? I have 118,000 miles on my truck so I’m starting to think about changing my injectors soon. I think I am going to go for NEW oem boshc or something. I want the best money can buy. I’m not going for power, staying stock.
    What should I get?
    Thanks!

      Hi there! What year is your truck? If its a common rail, then you should check out a baldwin PF7977. Here is link to the exact set of filter that I just used not more than a month ago....ebay.us/ObdMMc

      Yo Claremont Classic! So glad to hear! 03 CR's seem to be better on the Injector nozzle and internals not failing (In our experience), But the solenoids failing seem to be a more common issues. We love those motors and hope you love the Cummins!

    Ok 06 g56... Truck runs fine, no hanging idle... No smoke no haze like you said. Had an edge tuner for monitoring guages, got rid of that to go to custom tunes with smarty mm3. This tells me the balance rates, and I've got 1 that is between +3 and +4 (cyl 5 it says, but could be in firing order) but sometimes it goes down in low 2s. In neutral and idling. No signs of failure. If that one is at say +4 (so it's under fueling and ecm is adjusting) will be it ok to run for a little bit before I save up?

    Would that mean all of the injectors are failing or could just one bad one cause this?

    • @70440charger
      @70440charger  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As will all common rail stuff, its hard to give you an answer that cover all of the possibilities. But I would say that typically you would have multiple failing and not just one. I suppose if you had one that was bad enough, it would be possible... but that is pretty unlikely. In our experience the majority of CR injectors we have send in for testing (even some freshly rebuilt) have failed. I am not trying to scare you, but just be real with you cause the consequences are so bad, if you gamble and guess wrong. For example, we sent off 18 injectors for testing and 3 or 4 came back as good. We took those and bought 3 or whatever more to complete the set and my friend drove from GA to Idaho. His injectors died somewhere in Nebraska. They didn't even male the whole trip! It got luck and caught it early enough to not smoke a motor, but it was too close of comfort!

      @kristina stevens hmmm. What years is he referring to? We have had an awful lot of theses 03-07 specifically, and we have never seen a failure that correlated with a wait to start light. Doesn't mean that it hasn't happened, but just not over the last 15 years for us. Wait to start issues for us have always been tied to an ecu issue. Thanks for bringing that up. We will be on the lookout for that now.

When putting it on neutral or park from reverse or drive the rpm jumps to 1,500 rpms. Is this a common rail injector problem or is it torque converter

    Quick question should the frp be at 6 and above ? Cause on my 6.7 is at 4.9 the frp on the edge gauge. Sometimes I have a hard start. Thanks. Great channel

    • @70440charger
      @70440charger  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey there! If your rail pressure is at 4.9k, I personally would want to look into that. I have never seen a healthy CR Fuel system be that low. Someone else might have, but not me! So If it were me, I would want to start by looking at the simple things like is the fuel filter dirty, is the lift pump putting out the proper volume and pressure, and then work up from there. Oh yeah, and it would be worth checking to make sure the gauge is reading properly... It would be pretty crappy to do a bunch of work only to find out a pressure sensor was spitting out a signal that was .05 volts too low.
      Now if we want to go wild, could it be low cause the cross over tube are not torqued properly and its bleeding pressure off or are the injector check valves worn and they have too much return? Is the fca or the CP3 worn out? Maybe... And worth thinking about... But I wouldn't start with the worse case scenario! Hope that help some!

    Guys, I’m sick to my stomach. Flew from Virginia to Missouri to get a 07’ 6.7 mega cab dually.
    As soon as I go to drive it away it was missing like it was starving for fuel. Changed the fuel filter. No change. No black smoke. No white smoke.
    The longer I go, the more it was missing until now it’s barley getting able to reach 70 mph.
    300k with original injectors.
    I’m so worried it’s a rail or injector issue and I have no money for repairs, which means I can’t use the car for work. I’m stuck.
