    Starter just died, looking for a new one i think..

    I ordered a gear reduction starter from ODiron and received it after UPS lost one, I have not installed it yet as I also had the original rebuilt , And I still have the engine partially apart and now plowed in behind a 8' pile of snow.

    Diesel shop says I have bad injectors, need help

    Leave the feed tube fittings slightly loose on all the injectors and crank the engine over a few times. When you see fuel at the fittings tighten them up.You can do it solo.

    I have a sick 6.2L and need some help!!!

    Plan on having the heads resurfaced if they are not cracked. Left head and right head are interchangable. Just swap out coolant block off plates on the back. Plan on intake gasket set, ex manifold gaskets and ex donuts, water crossover gaskets (same as block off plate gasket) have ex manifolds...

    what do you think of this deal (injectors)

    Thats almost what it cost to have mine rebuilt. I'm not a diesel pro but my neighbor is and he told me not to rebend or kink the feed tubes.
