How to swap fuel injectors. This video shows a full walkthrough step by step injector swap on a silverado 5.3L engine, but should be the same for other gm and chevy engines like the 4.8 and 6.0. It is also similar on many other vehicles. pretty straight forward, and will help you save money doing this yourself!

This man did all the work with one hand I tip my hat to you sir
I feel like he’s bragging a little doing it one handed/I’m joking and appreciate this video.
Agreed 👍🏽
Haha right? 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I was able to replace injector and truck runs great. Thanks for your video.!!!!!!!
Your video was a great walk through for a first timer! Thanks!
Great video. I do a lot of the exterior work to my engine. I had never done fuel injectors before. This video is straight to the point and easy to follow. Thanx!
perfect video for me, my 2002 2500hd just broke down this fixed it for $550 less than a mechanic.
Thank you. I can drive again.
+StabHappyHobo You're welcome for the video and I'm happy to hear it helped you get your truck back on the road with some huge savings! Haha, did I mention I take donations on my website? Fantasy-Customs.com that goes to help my videos. To Everyone who has saved big money the more donations coming in the more videos I will be able to make to help everyone. Thanks everyone!
Just bought a replacement injector for my number two cylinder. Your video is very well done very much it will make a task I’ve never done much easier to do
@ Tim Lankins - Thanks for the comment. I am forever greatful to make videos to help folks out! Best of luck with your repairs and Cheers Tim
Question about the order of the Fuel injectors in my chevy Tahoe 2003 is from Right Side 1-3-5-7 others number are from the LEFT SIDE: 2-4-6-8 AM I RIGHT? I have to change the NUMBER 6 INJECTOR
Thanks for the video really helpful
The one-hand man mechanic I dig it
hey great video. simple quick and easy.
I didnt think it was this easy....thanks man
excellent video man, thanks. i don't have any codes coming up like that but i have some kind of black crap getting back into my gas tank and its so gnarly that it plugs up the fuel filter socks. I was thinking it was some how coming from my charcoal canister, Just replaced all that, cleaned all the lines out and got it all back in. i don't know that it solved the problem yet however. i am having a bleed down of the fuel pressure and was thinking it;s possibly the injectors but I have no leaks and all cylinders are hitting ( changed out the plugs as well )
i just won an auction for a master kit fuel pressure tester and fuel rail cleaner though so in a few days i will be checking all that out as well. This problem has been like the plague pump after pump, cleaning the tank and lines,changing the filters, rebuilding the fuel pump assembly. this is the 5th time since January! GRRR
if the charcoal canister was not bleeding dust up into my tank, then the black crap has got to be coming from the return side of my fuel system right? anyone had something like this happen? when I take a plugged sock off the assembly, put it in a baggy, fill the baggy with 90% alcohol and shake it till some of the dust comes out, then dry the alcohol all that is left is super fine black dust.
Oh yeah, and as soon as I shut the engine off my fuel pressure goes to zero.
Gots to love how chevy engines all look the same this applied for my 07 not much change
Great video brother
Much appreciated
Thank you.
Thank you
Good video
You know its a Chevy when it has the ABS light on. 😃
Lol mine has never worked.
100%.
Ford Escapes are the same way. I can’t speak for all Fords. My GMC I’ve never had that happen.
I'm impressed by the reading on your oil pressure gauge while the check engine oil light is on. My 6.0 liter oil pressure gauge reads only around 40, sometimes a bit lower stopped at a traffic light. High miles though about 225000.
@damkayaker - it’s just saying change engine oil. The pressure was fine in this truck. My 01 6.0 Silverado runs about 60 psi cruising and a little over 40 at its lowest sometimes idling. 40 is normal actually. The majority of these motors I have had run about 40 psi constant and maybe sometimes just go slightly below that but too much below 40 and something is going on.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life - Oh I got mixed up thinking that light meant low on oil rather than time to change the oil. Thanks for the info on your experience with these 6.0 liter engines with regards to oil pressure and of course the topic of this video fuel injectors. I've got a 2003 Express 3500 cargo van and it would be a bit trickier doing the injectors. Thanks for the reply... subscribed.
@@damkayaker That is whats called the "message center" It tells you anything and everything you may need to know. I have personally seen many different messages including: check engine oil level, check engine oil pressure, change engine oil, low coolant, engine overheated, Check coolant temp, battery flashing, low fuel, trans hot idle engine, trans fluid hot, engine overheated, reduced engine power, security, service 4wd, low washer fluid, and cargo lamp on. thanks man and yes try removing the dog house on that van and then best of luck! Cheers!
@@damkayaker Your not mixed up . It says change oil soon when the oil needs changed and check eng oil level when the oil is low.
@@andya7283 - OK thanks for the clarification. I've had mine since it was new and change the oil every 3000 miles and keep thorough records of all the work I've done maintaining it. (date, mileage, part #'s, & tasks) the only thing I didn't include was a column for $$$ cost. My vehicle has a goofy oil life reset procedure. After changing the oil I have to turn the key to run, engine off, stomp on the gas pedal three times, and the oil light will blink 5 times letting me know it's reset. Only once did I forget to reset it and the light came on making me think I was low on oil. I wasn't low, the oil life thing thought enough miles went by to change it. It's a retarded reset procedure. It should be done with one of the trip odometers. A 2003 6.0 liter.
Good job young man. I just retired from welding, and your jacket or coverall cuffs look just like mine always did. Do you weld some?
Anyway, now my hobby has become working on the grandson’s ‘99 Sierra pickup. I’m getting ready to check the injectors to stop a random misfire code from popping up. The fuel system looses pressure as soon as the key is turned off. Thanks for your video.
Yes, I do weld often at my shop. These carhart jackets last about 2 or 3 years for me before they are bad like that. About be truck. If the truck is losing fuel rail pressure after being turned off look at the fuel pump, there is a one way valve that goes bad or gets stuck open causing the pressure to bleed back in the tank. Also like you are probably thinking check the injectors as well swap with some know good ones. Good luck, have fun, and enjoy your retirement! Cheers

I made this into a asmr video towards the end lol it's soo relaxing
Not sure what you're talking about but glad you enjoy the video.
FantasyCustoms4Life no problem and real quick question! I just took my 97 GMC pickup truck to the mechanic and he said he fixed it but now he said there's black smoke coming out from the exhaust. And he said he's going to change a sensor and I have no clue what's he talking about? Is that normal?
If it wasn't happening before he worked on it I would think he messed something up. What did you bring it in for to begin with? What sensor is he trying to change. I would be worried if I were you that does not sound normal.
I thought I was the only person to use a milk crate to stand on to fix my vehicle 😏
Sometimes a guys just got to improvise a little
Error code P268A(Injector not programmed/calibrated) in Chevrolet CAPTIVA, please advice which tool & software will work.
Hi great video. My problem is my 4.8 with 438,000 kilometres on runs fine when cold and you could drive to China and back like a new truck as long as you don’t shut her off. If you do, when you start her up again she runs like crap. Engine light flashing the works, rough idle, running really rich. Only trick I found to help get rid of it is to shut her down while I’m driving under load, throw her in to neutral and start her up again and drop her back down to drive. Works most times. Changed out spark plugs and new coils just recently, any ideas please
Great vid, my van looks diff but same concept
@Jeremy L - if it’s 99-07 it’s all the same you’re just doing it from inside the dog house on the van. Anything newer it’s the same process just the parts look sightly different. Best of luck 👍
@@FantasyCustoms4Life I’ve pulled the fuel pimp relay, cranked and, undid bat, and injector wires but when pulled the injector rail fuel started pouring out, what did I miss? Also had the gas cap removed and pushed that shader valve..
@@FantasyCustoms4Life I’m working on a 2020 Chevy van 3500
@ Jeremy L - there’s going to be gas in those lines when you remove them. The injectors will fire under pressure but will not remove all the fuel from the lines. You may have bled off the fuel pressure from unplugging the relay and cranking/touching the shrader valve but there’s still a volume of fuel in the lines thats not going to move anywhere until the line is undone to leak out. If it keeps pouring out fuel and will not stop then you likely would have a fuel pump/check valve problem. Yes the 2020 is going to look somewhat different than this 99-07 style but it’s basicly the same process like I said. Thanks
@@FantasyCustoms4Life thanks you’ve helped more then you know 👍
Thanks I'm going to try this method , I've replaced the spark plug + wire+ Coil pack + MAF + air filter , And still getting p0174 p0306 code on #6 cyl
If you replaced the injector and still have problems check the compression on that cylinder.
intake leak near 6
Jim Allen p
Yup, I use a milk crate to stand on too.
Hey great video. Just have a question, before I go about changing this fuel injector should I first start the truck and then pull the fuse associated with the fuel injector? I have seen another similar video where they did just that but I don't want to go do something that could further hurt my truck. 2010 GMC Sierra 5.3. Thanks definitely subscribing.
I have never heard of just pulling the fuse. I imagine if you only pull the fuse you will actually turn off all the fuel injectors or fuel pump or whatever the fuse feeds power to. You could however unplug the fuel injector on the cylinder you believe is the culprit without harming the truck pretty quick and easy. Unplugging a single injector will cut fuel off to that cylinder. A common way to check if a cylinder is not firing or locating a misfire on an older motor without the computer telling you where to look is I would unplug spark plug wires one at a time until you find the one that doesn’t make it start missing more (running worse and lower rpm) then you know that cylinder is not firing. So basicly if you unplug it an there is no change you know there is something wrong with that cylinder and needs diagnoses of what’s stopping it. Thanks for the question and good luck.
Will there be any fuel pressure waiting to spray me if I use this method of changing an injector? Or should I get the pressure off first.
@ Jed MeltonMusic - yes if it is holding pressure like it should there will be some gas. I just throw a rag around it when opening it and that should get most of it but you could try to bleed some off the valve first I never do though.
Thanks for the helpful video?is 07 same
Basically, yeah.
Question about the order of the Fuel injectors in my chevy Tahoe 2003 is from Right Side 1-3-5-7 others number are from the LEFT SIDE: 2-4-6-8 AM I RIGHT? I have to change the NUMBER 6 INJECTOR
Correct it will be second to rear most cylinder on the left side looking at the engine.
I have a miss fire on cylinder 6, I already change the coil on and and put a new one and a spark plug. but it does the same thing. questions is could be the injector??
Hey, you can first try changing around the number 6 plug wire since that's very easy and quick. If it doesn't follow the plug wire then swap the injector on number 6 to a different cylinder. If the miss follows you can bet on it. Thanks and good luck!
Do you recommend to change the fuel feed pipe ? Or can I reuse the same one ? I have a 6.2 L86 ?
I wouldn’t bother changing it. I’ve never changed one on any of these gas trucks mostly all over 200k miles and never had a problem.
Have any recommendations on which ones to buy for an 02 silverado?
@ Dakota Gage - more links in video description - tinyurl.com/35d725vw
I've chased this problem in my 03-05 model's alot I found before 03 it was fuel pumps
Test fuel pressure and if it’s within spec then not the fuel pump.
Hello Sir. Questions to ask. I replaced all fuel injectors on my 2004 GMC Sierra 2500HD. After I checked old fuel injectors, there was nothing wrong so I go ahead and replaced. Now my OBD scanner read 2 new codes. PO107 and P0200 fuel injectors circuit open. I tried everything and still could not regain my power. Before I replaced the injectors, I had all the power and ran great like new truck. What could be the problems?
I’m not sure how or why you have lost power to injector circuits. All I can think is the wires have failed to make contact or the new injectors are faulty.
Sounds like the truck is about to fall apart. Lmao.
Well yeah... it’s a Chevy ;)
By chance did the old injector make a slight ticking noise?
+xXTHECARGUYXx actually yes, while driving you could actually hear the slight ticking noise which all went away with the new injector installed.
i have a 2002 chevy suburban, why does your oil pressure gauge is above the halfway mark but the message board still ask you to check the oil levels? Is it asking for more oil or is it saying you added too much?
Oil level sensor is either reading low and needs oil or is faulty. It’s on the bottom back passenger side of the oil pan. Two wires going to it.
I have a 2001 Chevy Silverado 2500hd, it’s getting about 9mpg, would new injectors help it out with mpg?
@Urbex Stryder I feel your pain drving my 6.0 gas hog around and sadly the injectors likely will not help you much. Maybe it will help a mile or 2 per gallon if there is a misfire due to an injector problem. I have been told alot lately for my 6.0 to not be such a guzzler to find a good reputable tuner and he can possibly net me both extra power and MPG with a custom tune. I haven't any experience with it yet though. thanks and best of luck, cheers!
What made you decide there was a bad injector and how did you know which one to change? Thanks for the good video.
Having a misfiring problem sometimes when I take off in my '04 Silverado 1500 LS... It has 125,000 miles. Gotta take my foot off the gas and hit it again in order for the engine to smooth back out. If I don't take my foot off the gas while it's running ruff, the check engine light will blink numerous times then stay on.
+231MasseyFerguson I talk in the video about the codes coming up and then reading them, it giving me the cylinder number and or a random misfire code. hearing the truck misfire as well and feeling the power loss. hoping that the obd2 gives you a cylinder number to look at you can swap coils and wires with a different cylinder to see if the problem follows. If that doesnt show then swap injectors to see if the problem follows the injector. you can also do a compression and leak down test on the culprit cylinder.
Hey im going threw the same thing same yrs too.did you ever get it fixed??if what was the problem thanks...
after 10 years all of your cars seals and rubbers are all shot filters are clogged etc.. injector maintenace should be done as regular as changing shocks, now days is just cheaper to buy a new car, but regular maintenance can keep a car going for decades
I have a 2002 4.8l. 100xxx every morning I start it up and it runs rough until the engine is warmed up. It throws a code p0300. Multiple missfires in cylinders. I just put new fuel pump, filter, plugs, wires. I got a better code reader and it says my vacuum is low but none of my vacuum hoses look bad. Could it be dirty injectors or what?
that makes it harder to diagnose with just a p0300 code. possibly a leaking injector. Also sometimes if you have a bad fuel pressure regulator they will bleed gas through the vac line into your engine as it sits over night.
Thanks man, ill look into that
i need some help my 04 4.8 tahoe .my issue is i have like a skippy jumpy mistfire type of problem when in take off it dose that .then my exhaust feels like a rough and like it going on and off that my exhaust doing that some maybe both sensors up , down and .maybe bad injectors ,bad purge ???
Sounds like bad wires/coils.
What up. I’ve got a 2003 GMC Denali. 6.0 motor. Code is P0300. Checked everything and the machanic had me buy 2 fuel injectors. 1 and 7 where Random misfire. Truck is at the shop now. Hoping that fixes it because I’m $600+ into fixing it
Depending how well they diagnosed the problem will show you in the outcome of if it’s good to go or not. Good luck!
Hey what’s up. Thanks for the reply. It did not fix it. The problem was a vacuum leak and the cat converter plugged/messed up. Soon as I had the cat replaced the code went away. Replaced the intake manifold gasket too and she’s running cherry now
You cut the video right where I needed it... Did your fuel line pop right out of the rail easily, once you unscrewed the retaining clip? Mine appears stuck right there... Also does fuel pray all over when you pull that out?
They can be stuck in there good. Pulling up with force and lightly wiggling it side to side should get it loose just try not to break it! I've had a few stuck pretty good just like you're talking about. To stop the fuel from spraying out you can press the bleeder valve in on the rail under the plastic cap to relieve the pressure. Some will still come out but it will be okay just wipe it up if you're worried prolly have a cigarette in your mouth ffs. Good luck!
FantasyCustoms4Life thanks for the reply. yep I found the bleeder.. it trickled a fourth of an ounce of fuel.. what is that! the whole tube still had a few ounces of fuel.. no smoking thank God.. lol I got it all sorted out.. your video helped.
My husband had to replace an 02 sensor a couple of other things. His truck is an 05 Silverado 1500. It runs rough and there’s black smoke coming from the exhaust. Are those symptoms of a bad injector. I have an OBD computer but can’t find it right now.
It’s very possible a injector is bad and stuck open, yes.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life that’s what I thought. Thanks so much. We have some coming this Saturday.
Does this apply for 2004, suburban 8.1 vortec??
the 8.1 is a big block chevy and although the process is very similar the parts are not the same and will not interchange with 5.3 and 6.0 ls style engines.
Installing old intake to new crate engine. 5.3Fuel rail lines up on passenger side but driver side all four don't. Looking through ingecter ports I can see like a thumbnail moon part of block. No amount of wiggling or cussing helps. Any ideas?Thanks.
Something must be off. I have never experienced anything like that before. Fresh intake gaskets for the manifold I am guessing? Everything with the manifold bolted to engine without problems?
hey man nice video. Can i just clean the injector with a cleaner ??
You mean adding something to your gas tank? Sure why not, I don’t think it will hurt anything. Weather it helps, it may somewhat if they are gummed up just a little.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life more like removing the injector and cleaning it with b 12 cleaner ?
Oh I understand now. Yeah b12 is great! Let them soak in that and then I often hit them with compressed air or you can even go a step further and cycle them with a 12v battery and a couple leads if you want.
I got an 04 silverado 5.3L and its got a p0300 reading. It seems to skip around 1500 rpms at around 45-55mph in a slight incline but the check engine only comes on once in awhile while its doing it and then shuts off farely quickly. Been getting worse and have poor gas milage. Cannot seem to pinpoint the problem changed the wires and plugs but found it weird that it only does it around that rpm and speed. Was wondering if you ever expiernced or heard of such a thing. The video was very informative alwasy trying to learn new stuff to avoid the labor bills
hard to pinpoint then but you can try things like check out your fuel pressure regulator, replace coils and spark plugs, and pull the injectors to see if they are clean or dirty. if any of the injectors are really dirty then replace that injector.
walleye892 p
Have you tried new cats? They make aftermarket replacements, I have the same code, and that is the last thing I am going to try. I plan on new fuel injectors, then cut the old cats out and put in some universal magnaflows.
will changing the fuel injector help with the misfired cylinder ?
In my case where the injector had failed, yes. It completely fixed the misfire problem and solved the lack of power. Thanks!
FantasyCustoms4Life how many fuel injectors are on the 5.3
There are 8 fuel injectors, one for each cylinder.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life i changed spark plugs and i still have misfire 5 . so should i replace my fuel injector on cylinder 5??
l@@GetsLAHP You can first try to switch around the coil and plug wire on that cylinder with another known good cylinder to rule out a coil or plug wire problem. Also you could take a compression reading on that cylinder to make sure the inside of the motor is healthy. If that checks out then go ahead and replace the fuel injector or switch the suspect injector to another cylinder to see if the problem follows the suspect injector. Thanks
I have a 07 tahoe 5.3. I the engine shakes really bad and smells gas. I was told to clean the injectors but after i did it the truck still does the same thing
compression test on cylinder with misfire and maybe injector needs replaced or check your ignition coil or spark plug wire.
can dirty fuel injectors cause white smoke out the tail pipe ?
not normal unless they are possibly stuck open. That is more common on a diesel engine but i suppose could happen to a gas engine as well. does the smoke smell like fuel?
Im not sure It was a call from a guy that wants me to check out his car but, he said he thinks its the fuel injectors causing it, Ill check if that smoke smells like fuel tho... im just ganna wind up doing a compression test while im at it cause the guy could be wrong lol
Why is your check oil and ABS light on?
I swapped the oil pan and someone cut the sensor wires off the oil level sensor on the new used pan. I was waiting to swap the old sensor back in when I changed my engine oil the next time (Unplugged). The ABS light was on due to one of my wheel bearings going out and the ABS sensor not reading correctly in the hub.
was that sound at around 12:35 your abs kicking on? because my silverado does that randomly as well.
no, this truck didnt ever make the abs kick in randomly, I do know exactly what you're talking about though cause i have owned a bunch of these trucks and had one that did. my pops truck which is a 96 started doing it too. anything from bad wheel bearing (likely) to bad abs moudule. watching the video now i have no idea what that noise was on my truck, must have been some small bumps on my dirt road that rattled something to make that noise. the abs light was on in this truck but due to it having a bad wheel bearing sensor, after the new wheel bearing the abs light went away.
alright that makes sense,i think my bearing might be going and now i just connected the dots. thanks for the reply man.
hey no problem, glad I could be of some help to ya! cheers
FantasyCustoms4Life my truck does that too, its the wheel speed sensors are dirty and need a cleaning. clean theyre mounting point too cause rust is fucking with them lol, they also come with a spacer take that out and she'll be mint
it actually was my bearing, replaced it about a month ago. all abs problems have ceased
I have a 07 gm 1500
Can’t let go of the gas while it’s running or the truck turns off. Could this be it? I changed all spark plugs and crank position sensor, Bc that’s what it was reading
Now it just says “engine misfire”
Could be a injector or compression issue.
Yes It is your injectors. I went thru the same problem and did exactly what you did .problem was solved.
Would this be the same with a 8.1 Liter 496 Eng? 2002 Chevy Silverado?
its a very similar process on the 8.1. The parts are not the same though and will not interchange with ls motors such as the 5.3 and 6.0. the 8.1 is a big block chevy and not in the ls engine family.
Is this the same concept as a 08 escalade 6.2l?
Yeah, it really is.
i have a 2006 Sierra 2500 HD. in the last couple morning when i start it I'm getting a ticking sound on the driver's side of the motor. yesterday it happened, it studdered, the check engine light came on and i know it was only running on 7 cylinders. stopped prettt much right away. but Im thinking its an injector. thanks in advance
Could be that or super common on these to have what's called lifter tick. More so on a cold morning startup. Dirty lifters that arnt working 100%. Got a new video coming out soon all about lifter ticks and when they get bad and what to do.
It definitely sounds like a lifter. I'm getting ready to move 2500 miles. Have to figure this out quick.
What people do to cure them varys from how dirty they are. You may be able to get away with doing a motor flush followed by an oil and filter change. What I do for a motor flush is remove about 1-3 quarts of motor oil and then add transmission fluid back in whatever you removed to get the oil level full again, then run the motor at idle for about 5 minutes and drain out and do oil and filter change and see how it sounds. Other people use kerosene instead of transmission fluid some like to use the store bought stuff which is mostly just kerosene or use mmo which is basicly trans fluid with some slippery additive. If that doesn't work then you have to go a step further removing your valve cover and using a heavy cleaning agent like sea foam or b-Chem tool and spray down the top of your push rods and let them soak, even better to remove push rods clean oil from them and then spray down them. Lastly if nothing works remove your cylinder head and replace lifter.
How do Ik which injector to replace??
Hi I have a 2010 Yukon denali with 81k miles on it. Do I have an injector problem if I go full throttle from zero and at around 3k RPM I hear almost like a turbo gas release (whoosh) sound and once I am passed that and into the next gear, the sound doesn't return back ....
I am not sure but once I felt like I smelled fuel when that sound came cause I had the windows rolled down.
CEL code 219b keeps coming up once in a while too ...
I am lost, please help!!
That code is fuel trim balance bank 2. You very well could have a stuck injector or something faulty with your injectors possibly. Bank 2 is referring to the passenger side cylinders of the engine. To smell fuel would indicate a possible leak so be on the lookout for any fuel leaks anywhere, or a possible stuck injector supplying too much fuel could be the reason for smelling fuel as well.
Hello did you fix the problem p219B?
Hey bro, at 3:40 once you remove the T20 screw and unplug it there's gas coming out of mine. Do you know why? I was reading the comments and you say the fuel pressure. Is that the reason why it's leaking gas?
+Ernie Bernal There should be fuel pressure bleeding off when you remove the line. After a second or two it should stop and only be whatever fuel is left in the top of the line with no pressure behind it anymore.
You should put grease on the O-rings not gasoline
When it’s handy for sure grease is the answer. In a pinch I use a tiny drop of gas or anything wet to get it to slide. It’s a tight fit especially if the o rings have swelled.
nice wheel speed sensor light lol
ABS wheel sensor. Don’t need no ABS really just lucky to keep break lines full of fluid up here in Michigan on these old chevys. 😂
@@FantasyCustoms4Life Yeah, I got ya. Where I am, they go bad every damned winter with all the salt, ice, and snow that gets wedged into the damned things. Absolutely notorious pieces of shit lol
@ J K - Salt life is a rough life, southern boys don’t even know the struggle. Cheers
I’m getting a P0307 code changed the spark,plug,wire and still throwing the code.
You could quickly switch the cylinder 7 coil pack with another cylinders pack to see if it follows. If not next step would be popping in a new injector or trying to clean the old one. Good luck let me know how it works out, thanks.
FantasyCustoms4Life I changed the coil pack too. Still the same result.
Check your compression on that cylinder if you haven’t already.
I like to blow off the dirt that is near the injector so it don't fall down the holes
mechanic said injectors 1 and 6 are going bad
2000 chevy silverado 2500. 6.0 engine. 4x4
quoted me $1140 to fix 2 of them
quoted me 2483 to fix all 8 of them
could anyone give me an input on as to if that price quoted is good.
Wow, insane. Labor shouldn’t be more than a couple hundred at most if I were doing it for someone. Depending on oem injectors or not I’m wondering what they are charging for injectors. Crazy price in my mind I buy cheap injectors before and now just run good used and have no issues yet.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life Duralast Fuel Injector MPDL1318N8 . are my injectors . and that’s for all 8
Those look like trailblazer ss injectors, and over $600 for all 8. You should be able to find regular oem 6.0 lq4 injectors for cheaper I would think. I wouldn’t want Duralast brand injectors in mine. Still the shop is nuts thinking this job should cost $1800 labor to change 8 injectors. I could do the entire job in less than an hour.
I have four misfiring cylinders have changed plugs, plug wires and the coil packs. I also have a bad o2 sensor, would it have anything to do with misfires? Or would you lean more to the injectors? Thanks
o2 sensors are not going to throw anything that far out of wack in my experience. If its all 4 cylinders on one side only (bank 1 or bank 2) you might want to check for a clogged catalytic converter.
Can i clean the fuel Injector
I don’t see why not?
I am not getting 302
But I am getting 174 do you think you could still be a fuel injector?
Thanks Keith I just subscribed
Could be a fuel injector or it could also be an air leak (intake manifold?) causing that code which is system too lean (bank 2) p0174
Thanks Keith
Thanks for the reply buddy I have a 4.8 2000 GMC Sierra.
I'm going to pull the codes again tomorrow but I have not seen a 304 or 306 yet.
In the morning I smell raw gas when it's running.
I got on the freeway the other day start accelerating up to 65 I noticed it was a lot of missing. I have new iridium plugs new MAF

I'm getting too old for this crap I hate working on my vehicle anymore.
Go to RUclips and type in.

You will see my truck
Thanks Keith
@@KTHKUHNKK if its got raw fuel going on then you may have a stuck injector, no spark on one or more cylinders, low to no compression on one or more cylinders or possibly just a leaking fuel line.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life
I'm going to put a fuel pressure gauge on it to see what kind of fuel pressure I've got.
Then I will go from there. It starts right up so I don't think it's the fuel pump. But I will check into it thank you so much for your replies.

Would you recommend refurbished injectors? Being told I need 6 at 190 each
Yeah, the refurbished ones worked like new for me. I have some links in the description for some.
i got a 2000 chevy silverado with a 6.0
1 and 6 injectors going bad they quoted me 1200 to fix 1 and 6
2500 to replace all 8
You didn’t have to remove the whole fuel railing did you?
@ Adrian Flores - Yes, pull the whole rail for whichever side you need to do.
So I removed the bolts from passenger side since I got the p0302 code for cylinder 2 how would I go about removing that side or would I have to loosen the other side to
It’s literally being done in this video. Pull the crossover tube up and out of the top of pass injector rail, unplug injectors and pull the pass rail out with the injectors attached then put new injector in place and reverse process back together.
what!!!!!!!!!! a fuel injector for each park plug and coil????????????
How can I tell which injector is bad?
I had obd codes often pointing me to a specific cylinder. Sometimes you will just get a multiple misfire code. You can either start swapping them with known good one at a time or one side at a time otherwise just replace them all if you don’t have time to play detective.
why clear the error code? don't you want it to clear up by itself to know that was the fix and not plugs or an O2 sensor??
+Bondo I've never heard of a o2 sensor causing a cylinder not to fire completely also, I had already put new plugs in. For video purpose I didnt have the time to drive around waiting for the light to go off. Its faster to clear the code and watch it not pop back on a minute after starting the truck. Someone less experienced may want to let the code clear on its own.
Did you clamp your fuel lines
No sir
@@FantasyCustoms4Life I changed my lines and codes still reading misfire
Changed injectors? Could be spark (coil, wire, spark plug) otherwise looking at fuel pressure, cylinder compression or manifold leak.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life yeah I changed spark plugs and coils
Was your engine running like shit? Like shaken when u hit the gas?
@ Captain Kenzo - Yeah, depending how bad they are and how many are bad it is noticeable.
It’s like $700 for all my inyectores set 😩😩😩🥺🥺 05 Chevy 6.0
@ Trocas MX - Dang man, you should be able to find cheaper than that for sure.
@@FantasyCustoms4Life got the eBay ones . Anyone got some luck wit those ?
@@TrocasMX - Yeah, I’ve used them without issues on several trucks.
I gotta ask , you took the rail pretty much off , why wouldn't you just change all of them
Only changed the worst ones that were causing a misfire. The others were still operating well enough for the old truck so I didn’t change them. If you want to do preventative maintenance and have new injectors by all means change them all when you’re there.
Nobody ever does the driver side I’ve never seen a video where anybody does the driver side
I’ve been into the driver side just as much if not more. That pesky #7 gets a lot of junk thrown at it. Might just give me the excuse to make a new video showing the drivers side!
What about the driver side? You know, the hard side.
Hard side? Not really... One extra o-ring on the fuel line of the fuel rail compared to the other side and unbolt the line coming up from the tank and that's really the only difference, but yeah sure its the "hard" side lol.
hey man, I have a 06 2800 that's showing p0300 and p0171. Is it safe to assume it's a fuel injector? To my knowledge it came on after I changed the plugs.
I would say that's a good place to start would be looking at bank 1 fuel injectors. What kind of plugs did you install?
Or just pull the injector plugs till u find the bad injectors
That actually doesn't work as well as you might think unless the cylinder is completely dead. Even then the codes read me the cylinder misfiring and is much easier and faster and more accurate.
Typical Detroit engineering- use a 2" bolt to hold down a 16th inch metal dealie.
How bout the driver's side, everyone makes a video for the passenger side
Your lighting sucked!!!
poor video missing what you doing
Thank you
