both of my uncles trucks were found to have diesel in the oil. shop says its the injectors. i searched online and found that this is a common problem. anyone else experience this? they were quoted 5k per truck to fix. seemed a lot to me until i looked up the injectors and saw how much they cost. does 5 grand seem a fair price? thanks

 

What year are the trucks?

 

an 02 and an 04

 

So both are LB7's which unfortunatley are known for hit or miss injectors, they are great engines though.

I would check with some diesel performance shops such as merchant automotive, danville performance, socal diesel, McRat racing, to see if they can get you a better deal on injectors, labor at the dealer though is gonna be a killer.

 

ill do that, thanks.

 

The 04 depends. If it is an early 04 then yes it is an LB7. If it is late 04 it is an LLY.

 

LB7s have a 200,000 mile warenty on injectors.

 

I think it only goes back 7yrs...
