HELP: my Injectors are Destroyed I NEED NEW INJECTORS!

CrazySte · #1 09-22-2009, 11:49 PM

HI EVERYBODY,
i have a 208 Dodge RAM 2500 Cummins 6.7l Diesel... well, let me make this story Short: we filled up our Truck in a Gas Station somewhere in the middle of the Mountains... 2 hours later the Truck Died.
This happened Saturday

Today i drove 4 hours to go up to the only Dealership that there was in the area where my Truck stopped and here is the thing: they found approximatelly 4 gallons of Water mixed with Dirt in the Fuel Tank.

They said that unfortunatelly the Fuel Filter can do only so much, so basically, once the cleaned the Tank, cleaned the Fiel Lines and replaced the Fuel Filter, the poor Cummins can't turn on because the Injectors are clugged up with Dirt amd so they need to be replaced.

HERE IS THE DEAL
The Offered a Set of 6 Injectors at $1400 each one, which for me it was a totally rip off, so we called a little bit around and found the same Mopar Injectors for just $1050 but still a way too high considering that the Warranty is voided on the Engine anyway due to the Dirt that got into it.

I NEED AFTERMARKET INJECTORS... ANY SUGGESTION?
So since i don't have anyway a warranty on the Engine anymore thank's to the ****ty gas station which will soon receive a letter from my lawyer, i want to buy some Aftermarket Injectors that are good but not as expensive as the OEM.
The dealer said they don't have a problem installing any brand of Injectors, we can have em shipped directly to them, so i am here hunting for Injectors.
Talking with a couple of friends, i have been suggested to get TST Injectors, but i wanted some mor eopinion from you guys... what should i look for for my 6.7l Cummins?
THANK EVERYBODY

I get good prices on oem from Cummins. As I work for a dealer SO if your last resort is to buy factory ones then get me your serial number off the engine I'll see what I can do for you. I'll call my guy at Cummins and see what the price is so you have options. Put i will need the serial number to make sure they are correct ones. they will direct ship them to the dealer just need a address.

re-man bosch is 895 each plus tax 7% plus shipping and a core charge 150 each you get the core charge back when you send the old ones back
made a call woke him up at work lol That's not Cummins
AS A LAST RESORT. I would try to buy aftermarket ones with more hp myself
though.
sorry your truck is messed up. you don't have a water in fuel light on your dash though? hope you got the receipt for the fuel that you bought
Maybe some others can get them cheaper but that's what i found out and 10pm.

Thank you very Much Pizzo, but really, i am not about to spend 6 thousand dollars in Injectors even tho probably will be the Fuel Station that will have to pay for it.
So you are telling me that the Mopar injectors are actually Bosch?
I was kinda expecting that... anyway... my father want's to stay in the range of $500 per injector... he doesn't wanna put more than 3 thousand in parts

Similar circumstance happened to my Dad years ago but the diesel tank had gasoline in it. The station paid for all the repairs, which cost alot being it was on a Peterbilt. Hope your lawyer can hit a home run for ya.

HI EVERYBODY,
here is the big news.. we called Exxon, and gave them the Gas Station ID number that is present in our OnLine Statement of the Credit Card with which we purchased the Fuel and they said.. OK!

We will come to see what was taken out of your Truck, and once confirmed that that's our Diesel mixed with junk, we will pay for all the repair cost... considering that the Truck was still under warranty, our Insurance will be forced to buy New OEM Parts.

I will keep you guys posted, but i think that already tomorrow we will order the new Injectors directly from the dealer and the bill will go directly to the Insurance of the Gas Station
LET'S HOPE FOR THE BEST
