I am curious why you need to pull the injectors and clean them. Your truck is a '08, so I would assume that they should be good. What about using that stuff you dump in the fuel tank that is "suppose" to clean injectors?

 

Thanks.

well ,my truck is setting codes p1175 and p0304 ,gm says:clean injectors

 

the truck stayed 7 months parked at the brazilian port ,and I put on her 16kmiles ,only ethanol ,and I believe it's an injector issue...

 

since I don't have any warranty ,I will have to do it with a trustful mechanic by ourselves...

 

the manual procedure for injectors removal would be very helpful.

 

tks

Pickup some injector cleaner or fuel system cleaner and run it in a tank, then change your fuel filter after that tank is done, it will probly pickup a bunch of crap in it.

Not sure about the 08 trucks but, when my Dad and I working on his older Thunderbird we just pulled them out. The books said to grasp them firmly and pull them out. Surprising that it was just an "o" ring and a pressure fitting holding those babies into the Intake manifold!

 

Sorry I can't give you an exact answer but, I would think that they have to all be somewhat close???

 

Anyone?

tks Bill ,can you send me the factory service manual for fuel and emissions service on a file?

 

tks.

 

 

The following "Tech to Tech" article suggests the entire fuel system should be checked/serviced, not just the injectors...

(Along these lines, I have a separate factory service manual for fuel and emissions service and the fuel portion is 92 pages long!)

There is a filter...... it's in your tank.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By KARNUT · Posted

      I’m doing an experiment on a vehicle I don’t have much money in. I’m going by the premise that after they last 100K miles they were no mechanical problems with assembly. Or defects with the parts. With oil changes by the minder for the first 127K miles when I acquired it. I quickly went through low mileage oil changes then settled on 5k oil changes with close to 170K miles on the vehicle currently. I did have the option to turn off the cylinder deactivation. I didn’t on this vehicle because in ECONOMY mode at least half the time. It should be a no brainer frequent oil changes are the key. The manufacturer gets away with the long oil changes with its severe service  maintenance. Just ask them what is normal.

      Hot air constantly blowing through floor vents, drivers side only?

      By baglie1 · Posted

      Even set to "recirculated", the air pushes out and is hot. I have noticed that sometime it doesn't want to switch between recirculated/vented air. Say it is set to Circulated Air and I want to switch to Vented, when I click the Vented button, it just quickly lights up/clicks and immediatly switches back to Circulated. It's done this a few times now. So maybe it is an actuator getting stuck? But then, that doesn't explain the hot air when everything is off does it?

      I wonder what the price is out at the coast, Big Sur or other out of the way locations as I bet they are charging quite a premium over the in land pumps.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Were you looking at the HD trucks on the GM website or the half tons as that makes all the difference. As far as I know there are only two options for the HD trucks and that is the standard 2 speed transfer case or the 2 speed transfer case that has the added 4 high auto feature and they put that transfer case by default into the LTZ and High Country although its optional in the LT and not sure if its available in the work trucks.    The half tons, that is where its been a total mess in my estimation for a few years now with most trucks below the top trim having the single speed transfer case as standard but with the option of having the two speed such as one would get by choosing the Z71 package, however then not being able to get the two speed transfer case with the towing package unless it was a higher trim truck AND had the 6.2 gas so one could combine the towing package gearing diffs with the two speed transfer case. Having said that if its a trail boss package then it gets the two speed transfer case but not necessarily able to get the tow package as it would depend on trim level and engine chosen. Believe me, people have bought the GM half tons assuming "of course it will have a two speed transfer case" only to find out after when they really pay attention to what they now own .... crap, there is NO low range !.    I don't believe Ford or Ram have gone that way yet with their half tons but like I say its been a few years now that GM has done this with the half tons.
