Your videos have taught me so much. You are a great teacher and have inspired me to do all of my own upgrades on my 06 Duramax. Thanks for your help!!

[@Jhwright07]

Man I love your channel. Just moved from a 6.0 to LMM Sierra. I've learned so much in the last few days binge-watching all of your videos. Thank you for all that you do!

[@ThatSly1]

You just saved me a lot of money i did my swap on the side of the road and didn't have to have it towed to a shop thank you so much for taking the time to make this video

About to do mine today thanks to him as well, you just gave me confidence if you did it on side of the road lol

[@phillipkrol3338]

Good mention on the copper washers! Someone did the injectors on my truck and had 2 in there!! Leaking coolant since day one.

[@TruckMaster]

No way

[@phillipkrol3338]

@@TruckMaster yeah lol unfortunately. I put 100,000 miles on them. Another one didn't even have one in it! Glad I had it done right with a shop after that. Never smoked or hazed always started right up. Balance rates were good you just had to add coolant after 3 or 4 months.

[@SaucyNuggs_2313]

Having a LB7 and watching this makes me so jealous... Yes I did my own injectors. Hopefully not for a long losing time to come

[@tt7hvn]

I'm right there with you dude. I've done my injectors twice. The first time I paid someone to do them. The second time I did them myself and realized how much the guys I paid to do them didn't do. They literally only replaced the injectors and nothing else. Hence why I had to do my injectors again 70k miles later.

[@jantzenmoore2250]

Same here bud this looks soooooooo easy! The lb7 has to many things that could go wrong to cause you to pull the valve covers again.

[@Sal-ig2fw]

Dude where did you learn all of this I know it’s an old video but you have taught me plethoras of duramax information and inspired me.

[@RustbeltMechanic]

Great install video buddy! Glad I could help out with the programming🤘🏻

[@deakongolla3838]

Is the best flow or balance rate code a higher number or lower number. I'm new to diesels any help or advice would be helpful. Thank you

[@jasonsulzbach782]

Would you still have to calibrate and do the coding on a new/reman stock injector?

[@horacewilley8728]

How long did you have to wait for your injectors from Bitterroot??

[@chasekingsbury8245]

Don’t own a duramax but currently stuck at home because of the “VID” 😂 so I’m going through and rewatching all your videos. Love to see a fellow Michigander succeed! Did have a question though if you see this. What would you have to do if you pulled out an injector and the copper washer didn’t come out with the injector?

[@andrewcox7130]

Your lucky the injectors came out so easy! Who is doing the tune ? Love your channel! God Bless!!

[@kywindage1371]

I'm very interested who you choose for tuning. I have Starlite trans safe tuning on my truck an love it.

[@xbillabongx2000]

if u have the filter delete kit on there why not just bypass the housing all together ur lift pump will take care of the priming and u could use the shrader valve to bleed the air out

[@JCF520]

Why you always make things look easy?? Great work, once again!!

[@cawhorses]

I've always understood you need to see your fuel flow rate and figure out the injection balance rates based upon the actual for rate to figure an accurate injector balance rate. Is that true?

After I make more money that’s one of the things I wanna take care of . So where did ya get that massive steel front bumper? Keep on rocking !

Way better than my old LB7

[@camdendunbar1877]

Holy cow this looks so much easier than doing my lb7 injectors lol

[@ronthompson2366]

Well done video. Couple of questions... How many miles are on the engine/old injectors ? Those were in bad shape. Do you occasionally run an injector cleaner through your fuel ? There are some good fuel additives for diesel on the market. Additionally what is the cost for a full set of injectors, and out of curiosity, what would the labor rate / cost to have a shop do this... such as your friends shop , Ryan's ? Kinda gives an idea of overall cost ... How many miles should you get out of these new injectors ? Being 60 over, what of fuel mileage are getting [mpg] out of your truck ? When are you going to do some interior work on the truck ? Don't the large offset of those wheels stress your wheel bearings , spindles... etc. ? How well do those low profile wide tires get around in the snow ? Ok that's all.

[@GRAYSTAW]

Truck Master Josh, I have an 05 LLY. It has 108,000 miles on it. Recently got limp mode on it and got a diagnostic reading of a PO201 code saying Cylinder 1 issue. I took the injector wire connector off and it looked perfect as did the wires themselves all the way back to the harness. The injector itself wasn't wet with fuel, but it did look a little darker around it than the others on that same side. With everything already removed, fuel lines etc.. I don't know if I can test the wiring harness connector to see if its getting the true voltage without starting the truck? Yes /No? Also, can I just change out that one injector with a stock remanufactured without going through the injector reprogramming? Thankyou Sir,

[@nick7.398]

Best on KZbin, makes me feel like I could do this lol

[@TruckMaster]

You got this

[@nick7.398]

Truck Master thanks, don’t even have a duramax I have a 7.3 but am thinking of buying a lb7 that needs injectors and fixing it to get a cheap duramax

What universal adapter were you using with the small 3/8" drive impact?

[@Mitchellfab_customs]

What kind of internals do you have buddy? I just had a engine built and was wondering what I should be expecting from a mostly stock internal engine. My last stock blew up with a simple tune from anarchy diesel.

[@umaremad5054]

dame that's a beautiful beast

[@ricardogarcia4523]

So... how are those metal fittings doing so far? 🤣 nice video 👍🏼

[@rickey1000rr]

Hey so I’m wondering about the smaller O ring on the injectors? You have the main ones that come with the injectors but if you buy a O ring kit it comes with the main O rings it comes with smaller O rings the clips for the fuel lines on the injectors and the copper rings as well.. but noticed you didn’t use the smaller O rings?

[@scoterplow50]

Good show as usual truck master. Keep up the good work

[@TruckMaster]

Thanks 👍👍👍

[@johnheitkamp4792]

Have you ended up getting a tune for those new injectors yet?

[@jonhalldav]

What if you have an injector that has a high balance rate for one injector, believing they are stock, can you use the same procedure to recode the injector in question or should you replace the injector? Also, how do you get a Tech 2 and know that you have all the necessary licenses/subscriptions? Thanks and have a blessed day!

[@onecleanplatinum8434]

Did you end up changing your fuel filters after installing the injectors?

[@dennisgermain189]

finally injectors on a LBZ, just great video, so 2 things, I'm trying to find out if I need to replace mine and using my Diesel Evolution CTS2 CA Edition ( yes CA) I can get the balance rates but there a lot of versions about what they mean and what you have to add/ subtract, multiply/divide to actual meaningful numbers , if you have any suggestion let me know, next I assume that even when staying with stock injectors they will need to be reprogrammed , what are the option there Again thanks for the video

[@bitterrootdieselperformanc6945]

Balance rates show how the PCM is commanding the injectors in an attempt to have equal cylinder contributing throughout the engine. It's not always perfect data, but it's usually very helpful in determining injector health. Our injector testing service would provide the most accurate data on injector health. All LBZ trucks will need the injector trim codes updated when changing injectors as the PCM is used to balance them from the factory.

[@SoloAscent]

wow. how long did that take you?

[@gregherrera5689]

You should put a 7inch exuast tip

[@landonstaubitz9388]

Hey I’m having trouble looking for return lines and the meter fittings can you buy them at a parts store?

hey truck master I know it’s an old video, but I just recently broke an injector hold down bolt, it’s showing quite a bit now that the valve covers are off, any tips or ideas on what to do? Thanks.

[@JoseRamirez-yu5fj]

I have an open circuit on injector one. I try wiggling the harness to cause the knocking but it usually happens when it wants or when I press on the pedal. Any insight on what I can do?

[@houstonbarr6070]

How were you able to clean the injector bores without introducing junk into the cylinders.

[@DanielPats1228]

I bought bitterroot injectors for my obs 7.3

[@ronthompson2366]

Couple other questions... since you focus on the Duramax.... first, I hear mention the desire to achieve 700 horsepower. What about torque ? I always understood that people wanted the high torque of the diesel for pulling power vice the horsepower people seek from a gas engine ? How much insight do you have on the Duramax used in the Colorado pickup ? Or do you only focus on full size trucks ? Lastly inline with that. Do you have any inside information on the Duramax engine that is coming out in the new 1500 trucks ? Ok, thanks.

[@RizieroCervini]

Ron Thompson The 3.0 duramax 1500s are not great. I work here at GMC and we see nothing but issues out of those 3 liters. We still have a “sold” one sitting on the lot with 3 miles on it that needs new fuel rail fittings. Leaking already.

[@sergduce]

Hey bro great video! Question, if I already have the ppei tune, and about to install 30 over 75hp injectors, will i need to re tune,. Im also throwing in a new street turbo. Any info will help. Thank you

[@bitterrootdieselperformanc6945]

Yes, the tune should match the injector size.

[@that11gmc36]

About to do 30 overs on my lmm. About how longs it take to do them all?

[@expatconn7242]

Like some others .. I’m am the newbie with 05 Chevy HD Duramax so my question is my truck is all stock and I plan on just for starters getting Rims but the next thing I was going to do a lift pump so I’m looking at air dog but the injectorsHow do you know what injectors to put back in the truck power wires do you go back to stock do you go to the next step higher for power etc. etc. thank you

[@bitterrootdieselperformanc6945]

30% larger injectors are the most popular since supporting mods are usually not needed and it's a great daily driver/tow size. Usually 75HP gain.

[@Michigan-thrifter]

Any tricks to get stuck injectors out? 2005 and we have 2 that will not come out, we've sprayed everything known to man with zero luck

[@ericbliss640]

[@0891sofaking]

Where can I purchase the return line with metal fittings?

[@InitialEngineers]

Replaced the motor on my LMM. Didn’t replace the injectors with my originals. How do I get the truck to recognize these injectors so I stop getting a miscommunication codes on all 8 cylinders?

[@MichaelChason]

Is the fuel pump a nightmare to change? Diesel they built in the intake

[@devinshaw4153]

Do you have the link to the return lines?

[@ericrump9703]

I'm looking at a 07 LMM with 185k on the clock. Trying to get a balance reading before purchasing. In your application was an injector showing a bad balance or do you just replace at a certain age/milage

[@bigikediesel]

Injectors just installed in my LBZ. Programmed the inj, I used the codes that came with the inj. All but #6 are around .5, but #6 is 2.7. The truck no longer smokes, and power has returned, but my fuel mileage is horrible. Do I need to take the best return rate and paste that on the remaining 7 injectors? I think it might just be a bum #6 injector. Like Ryan said, the inj swap fixed my P0087 low rail psi limp mode issues, even though my return rates were low, and the highs were only 1.5 and 2.0.

[@mk7_nate970]

I want to put bigger injectors in but I would need a tune could I install them and then get it tuned or should I just get a shop to install and tune jt

[@2ndAmendmentGlock]

can you reprogram your injector balance rates using EFI live? or do you need a tech 2?

[@samfreeman8799]

Are you on stock cp3 just did a cp3 conversation on my lml and don’t know what injectors to go with for the thinking 30 overs

[@Fatherhood101]

Are your wheels behind you in your outro for sale ?

[@jrar01able]

You remind me of Sargent Carter off gomer Pyle U.S.M.C

[@shannonmcdaniel5477]

I spent all day working on the lml, finally almost finished with the engine swap, it hard to do all the work on top of running a business. I kept getting an oil drip on the back of the block spent all day with a mirror and camera looking for the leak. Finally found it on the oil supply line for the turbo. It took a good hard turn to finally make it stop. That 15 mm is very difficult to get to with the up pipe in the way.

[@that11gmc36]

About how long they take to change brother?

[@allkillnofiller]

Can you use HPtuners to do the injector balance?

[@MrHellested]

By going off of the process for programming the new injectors, on your old injectors couldn’t you change the coding on the injectors with bad balance rates to the same as one with good rates, therefore not having to replace the injector at all? I didn’t even know you had to have them programmed after replacement.

[@bitterrootdieselperformanc6945]

Bad balance rates mean bad injectors. You can't reprogram bad parts.

[@johanrempel754]

What happens if I installed 75 HP bigger injectors then what it's tuned for?

[@kevinhenderson8474]

Can the programming be done with any tech 2 or do you need the GM software subscription?
