Injectors

b.mckay · Jan 16, 2021

Looking for recommendations on where to purchase injectors, or if I am better off bringing mine to a local diesel shop for testing/rebuild? I see I can buy them on eBay for a decent price just not sure on the quality ? Reason for replacing/rebuilding is I have heavy smoke at low rpm. White smoke and has a strong diesel smell so I believe they are leaking. Pump timing is at 0 degrees and does not seem to burn any oil or coolant.
Thanks! It is a ford 335

Your injectors have replaceable tips. I just cleaned and reset injectors from a 9600 Ford, one tip was bad. Be aware, having new or rebuilt injectors MIGHT not solve your
white smoke trouble as that's USUALLY caused by low cylinder compression when pump and injectors work right.

I bought new manufactured injectors
through A&I about 10 years ago. They were
either made in India or China. I did not
have a good experience with them.
Unfortunately I had owned them a year
before installation, so warranty was up.
With new injectors installed the tractor
would not fire at all, so i had to take
the injectors apart and found them full of
metal shavings or ribbons like from
drilling. Poor quality control. Im not
sure how many manufacturers there actually
are, I would guess maybe 2. So ymmv
