How to Install 24v Cummins Fuel Injectors | Power Driven Diesel

Recommendation on where to buy injectors from?

[@pddofficial]

A link for injectors is in the description, obviously we are biased but powerdrivendiesel.com/product-category/dodge-ram-diesel/1998-5-2002-2nd-gen-24v/24v-fuel-injectors/dodge-ram-cummins-1998-5-2002-2nd-gen-24v-fuel-injectors-budget-builder-24v/

Bare nozzles are cheaper, we sell them and they work great!

@@pddofficial recommendations for a pop tester setup for installing nozzles for the slightly advanced home gamer?

[@andrewb9708]

@@njdevi11 There's quite a few options, they're typically $100-$400 for the testing unit. My local (and highly trusted) diesel shop charged me $50 to pop test and balance my injectors (brand new Bosch 245hp HO). Of course, all the installation work was done by me. It's not that bad of a job, it took me four hours to replace the injectors, cross over tubes, and do a valve lash adjustment.

[@devinmanderson]

Tech tip: crows foot or offset wrench really helps with getting injector lines and any other tight space lines off. Use them all the time to pull hydraulic lines off valve bodies.

[@digitalmuzik8086]

Thx for tip. having this issue atm.

[@devinmanderson]

@Digital Muzik808 if all else fails harbor freight cheapo wrenches and a torch bend them mofos to fit...not you have a special custom tool welcome to mechanicing

[@KREperformance]

Best way I found to get the copper washers out of the injector bore is use a flathead screw driver because it has a slight taper. It’ll get the washer hung on the taper when you give it a few love taps and she’ll come right out

[@njdevi11]

Fire arm cleaning kit. Those copper brushes work great. I think .308 works best.

[@jrod5045]

Woooo finally doing a series for VP44S!!!

[@pddofficial]

Of course!

[@rubikrawler]

I just installed my PDD 24v injectors on the Fummins and it’s running great. Looking forward to grabbing a quadzilla from you next.

[@pddofficial]

Sounds great!

@@jimg2885 thankyou so much for showing your appreciation. doing these videos is very time consuming but comments like yours make it all worth it. Baron

[@Mikheno]

Just did this awhile back to install Bosch RV275 Injectors. Nothing more than common hand tools and a few hours of your time. I replaced the O-rings in the fuel tubes and adjusted the valves while I was in there. Make sure you get the copper washer out when pulling the old injector. You will probably need to leave a few injector lines loose when you start up for the first time. This will bleed the air out and save your battery from 20 minutes of cranking.

[@pddofficial]

Great to hear and good tip!

[@niceguy4928]

Thanks for the videos 👍🏻 wishing I had a Cummins.

[@electricamir248]

Great video. Thank you.

[@pddofficial]

You are welcome!

[@riverguy988]

Do I need to buy brand new cross over tubes to go with the new injectors? Can I just inspect my old ones?

[@pddofficial]

If the tubes are not damaged yes you can reuse them.

[@ArturoGarzaID]

4:38 what were you unscrewing 4:52 what were you pulling out, what did you drop?

[@pddofficial]

At 4:38 he is pulling out the hold down bolt for the injectors. At 4:52 still pulling bolts on the hold down but he set the impact down and the socket fell

[@hambuga69]

Seen this video quite a few times. I’m about to put some 7x0.010 vco injector nozzles on my 24v. Wonder how bad egts will be with stock hx35.

[@pddofficial]

will need to watch the gauge for sure.

[@anaconda7540]

In process of doing injectors on my 06 5.9. Everything went together great I never cleaned out injector bore bc they looked shiney. Now I’m seeing guys are spraying and scrubbing out with a brush. Do I need to pull them back out and clean out bores with a brush?

[@pddofficial]

No you should be just fine.

[@Mike-qu8bh]

If you’re upgrading injectors, to a bigger injector, do you need to upgrade the connector tubes as well?

[@pddofficial]

No not unless you are running 7x.013 and bigger

[@astoltzfus4]

I saw another PDD video and thought, "Yes! Finally the UCC video!"

[@doorymcfly3488]

Is it uncommon to just replace the o rings and clean the injectors out because they are leaking?

[@pddofficial]

Yes they should be pop tested to insure proper working order.

[@johnv.v.9716]

Now you guys should do the proper way to do head studs. Do we need to pull the head and install a head gasket and adjust vales? By the way where is Todd, I miss Todd.

[@drake_24v_hawkins]

Do your headstuds one at a time, I do it in the torque sequence for the head, never bad an issue. Done it on several trucks.

[@drake_24v_hawkins]

100% adjust valves. Anytime you do anything with headgasket/torque the cylinder head, easy to do

[@lastkings6209]

Can y’all do 6.7 Cummins next please?

[@prashantverma6811]

Thanks

[@pddofficial]

Welcome

[@bluebird5100]

What did you spray into the injector lines to clean them?

[@pddofficial]

brake clean and shop air

[@hounddog8862]

Problem I’m having is high pressure on the fuel return to the fuel tank, there is vapor fumes and when filling the tank engine running it’s pushing fuel out . Any suggestions on why

[@pddofficial]

Could be a restricted return or the tank vents clogged

[@hounddog8862]

@@pddofficial all seams free of restrictions or clogs, I believe there is a bad o ring on one or more injectors causing the pressure to push back towards the return

[@jimg2885]

Question for you, do you not install new gasket at the air horn and valve cover? Did not look like it in the video. Thanks for your input.

[@pddofficial]

At the valve cover it is usually not necessary as the o ring rarely goes bad as for the intake horn depends how it comes out

[@jimg2885]

[@blackout394]

Just installed the injectors from your PDD 24v 475hp fuel kit. Not sure what went wrong but got it to start up and it runs rough. Rough idle and rough acceleration until you get pretty high in the rpms. I bled the injectors good enough to my thought but could air still be trapped in the system? Should i try to re-bleed them again?

[@pddofficial]

Sounds like cross over tube not seated. Redo them and see if that fixes it. Please feel free to call our tech support team they would be glad to help you. 435-962-9555

hard to take yalls advice when everything yall build blows up

[@pddofficial]

We've never blown up a mild/moderate build, kinda like what most guys see day-in/day-out. The 2000+ HP stuff commonly has failures, parts breakage, etc.... BUT that big power carnage is hidden from Joe Public by most performance companies, we simply choose to share it so everyone can get an insider's viewpoint. If you don't like the free content, feel free to leave!

[@zslemp]

@@pddofficial just don't forget your throttle return spring and blame it on the pump builder. And don't show Joe public tods booger welds y'all do.

[@DOAD_Diesel]

@@zslemp it’s almost comical seeing people like you comment. Never built a 2000+ hp truck yet know everything about it and knows how to do it without failures. If you had half a clue why these engine fail under a high torque spike or why their last engine blew up the way it did your comment wouldn’t look so ignorant.
