Oh NOOOOO!!, not #5!

Well, I was taking apart the top end of my V6, and everything was looking good until I pulled the passenger-side fuel rail, and the rear injector (#5 I think) was cracked at the tip.





I know I could just buy a reman one, and it will probably work, but are there any risks? like uneven fuel supply to that piston, or any remans to avoid? I can be without the truck for a week or so, so if anyone has a good source, speak up!

Thanks.
Andy

Send them to this guy: Witchhunter Performance he can repair yours as well as clean and balance the whole set.

Very reasonable prices and quick turnaround. Not to mention a really nice guy.


If you choose him, tell him Robin sent you, he just did mine, was very fast, friendly, and reasonable priced.
Highly reccomonded.

Is there a good ingredient to add to the fuel that can clean the injectors effectively without removing them first to see if it helps, any recommendations?

It's best to replace them all at the same time. Although I never have, in either of the two times I've had to deal with fuel injectors.

that injector is just fine, all thats broken is the plastic cap. Just send it and the other 5 injectors to either witchhunter or cruizin performance. (I went through the latter)
