Also how bad do you have to bend the lines to work?

Well you can get injectors kits cheaper on Ebay.. I have posted many times! and If I'm not wrong here I think the 6.5 and the 6.2 uses different fuel pressures and are not interchangeable.

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.

I was quted 58 dollars a piece to repair my injectors so i was thinking of just buying new ones.


You have to watch out on ebay. I want to buy once and buy good quallity stuff There is a lot of crap out there that people sell to make a buck off someone. plus new ones have 3 year warranty.

I believe are's are fine coarse and long. The shorts for the 6.5 is because of the turbo and are fine thread also

You dont need short injectors for turbo, just use two manifold gaskets. That is a lot less trouble than bending those delicate lines.

Coarse thread injectors were only used in 1982... pre CUCV. All 6.2L and 6.5L motors from 1983 up use the fine thread injectors and are interchangeable (they thread into the same hole in the head).
