155d injector cleaning

   / 155d injector cleaning #22  
...While testing 1st, they ALL opened at the exact same pressure{low} but 2 of the 3 had REAL BAD spray patterns & wouldn't chatter. I replaced ALL 3 nozzles & they worked flawlessly.
What is typical hours before injectors become this worn out?

And, what is your experience with biodiesel? Same service hours before injector overhaul? More corrosion? Any other difference?

I might get raked over the coals for this but its the truth, however hard it is to swallow.. Straight Bio fuel is killing your fuel system.. "IF" left to sit for any extended period of time.. It'll gum-up a system in 2-3 weeks if left stationary w/o any additive.
I don't care what u say or what YOUR experience is.. its the truth..
ANY additive in Bio fuel is better than no additive.. PERIOD.
Now if you fill your tank & run it.. it works just fine.. just don't let it SIT.. PERIOD.

Chevy>> in your 1st post u stated you've rebuilt LOTS of injectors..but you keep asking questions like someone from another planet, who doesn't know what a diesel engine is..??
Take 1 apart..get the noz. # & google it..

Hey man. I was trying to simply gather info before tearing it down. All my experience is/has been with Deere and Cummins and Isuzu injectors. My pride does not keep me from asking questions about something I've never been in. I'm sure it's no big deal but was just trying to keep the down to a minimum. Apparently asking questions is a no no. My bad......

That's a real fair price for the nozzles..

Yes the other was fine. No real reason to replace the other in my opinion. Pattern was fine, and has less than 200 hrs on it

I would normally be putting all new in but, this being my own tractor I'm ok with not. Plus I now know the injectors both come right out easily
