mannytranny 10-22-2004, 08:33 PM So you are now your own warranty for injectors........http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley3.gif Did you buy it new? If so, thats a lotta miles! Dmax Tim 10-23-2004, 09:51 AM How long have u had the 285 on it? That adds another 7% or 14,000 miles http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif blnagel 10-23-2004, 09:57 AM That is alot of driving! My butt would be sore. Do tell on how you did it? Did you do regular service jobs etc? BenEdited by: blnagel jeep 10-23-2004, 06:40 PM i bought it new from local chevy dealership, my other truck has the 285's on it. I haul cars from the auto auctions to local dealers. 95% of the miles are pulling a 48ft wedge car hauler ktm520 10-25-2004, 10:54 AM at what mileage were the injectors changed? water pump? dmaxfan 10-25-2004, 11:48 AM I love stories like this. I doubt it will, but I hope this will help silence the critics. "That izuzu engine with the aluminum heads is not gonna last like an international or a cummins...."http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley19.gif If I had a dime for everytime I heard that sh!t. Way to prove them wrong Jeep and keep truckin!!! hd90rider 10-25-2004, 03:58 PM Mine ran till 215k then 1 injector, 225k 2 injectors, around 230k all injectors,at 282 motor went kaboom!! 02, bone stock. I believe due to the fact that every time an injector went bad, it dumped fuel in the oil, the bearings finally gave up. Put a new engine in in Jan. & now have 90k on it . Total on the Ally is 372k. Hope you make longer than I did Jeep. If it dumps fuel in oil, do not believe them when they say "it wont hurt anything". Ever use diesel to wash grease off your hands or take rust off of tools??!!! Dont believe it lubricates very well. Max Owner 10-25-2004, 10:05 PM Jeep; stock Allison or six speed? HD90Rider; How about your Allison? Hic ups, problems? Certainly glad to hear.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley32.gif jeep 10-26-2004, 11:39 PM injectors changed at 98,000,water pump at 193,004. and stock ally. going in on friday to check the injectors- made the appointment before the 200,000 mile mark so if they check out bad they will be coveredhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley4.gif hd90rider 10-27-2004, 12:21 AM Max Owner So far, never the 1st hiccup with the Alli, & it is towing 70% of the miles.
