Glad it turned out to be something simple. Now you can get it fixed right and hook up the boat. See you on Saturday

I bet you really wish you got a second opinion like everybody suggested!

thought this is why the dealer came into play....diagnostic thought it was all good...i wouldnt just buy injectors w?out knowing the problem....they were on the way out anyway

seen bad crank signal or ckp signals and sensors replaced on cars because of the same thing i would go back and get my diag money back

Glad you got it figured out!

josh, before they fuck up the crank trying to get it out. kia's brake the crank bolt in the crank all the time, we have a guy come and lazer the bolt out and he does not even fork the threads up doing it. any way he charges 275 to remove it with the motor still in the car. just check into it before they fork up the crank.

jeez i hope that makes sense $:-\$

not even threaded...just 1/4" dowel pin....once they get the harmonic balancer off they will determine what to do! and he will call before making a call....thanks for the heads up ralph...

Can't help but wonder why they pin the thing on there instead of a normal keyway to index it.....

got my truck back from the shop, and the saga continues....i missed something somewhere when doing the injectors i may have already fixed it, but i dont know yet, but how would you feel seeing this under your truck the morning after you got it out of the shop?

in frustration and angry you do this, and then feel like a dumbass

« **Reply #38 on:** January 16, 2010, 10:49:10 PM »

so today i tore back into the motor like i was going to replace the injectors again, and 11 hours later the pig fired back up again! and honestly i think i got it...a little driving and a smog test, and i will find out for sure...lets all hope for me...that this well over a month fiasco is over! had a long discussion with the duramax tech over at the diesel shop i used for my harmonic balancer deal, and he told me that it was a return line deal....one of the seals wasnt sealed or something rather....so i called the dealer, and bought the factory original seals, and not aftermarket...of course 10 seals was 40 bucks, and basically just a washer, but whatever.....anyway got the truck back together, and now it starts, and drives like it used to....so lets hope tomorrows test drive works out for the best it wont take long to find out....but todays test drive really shows some good promise....god i really hope this is all over with

time to sack up and deal with life bro. either stfu and fix it, or take it to someone who can fix it.

shit could be A LOT worse. having car/truck problems isnt the end of the world.

how much have you spent so far? (parts, rental car, service at other shop, etc)

how much did the original dealer quote you?

whats the lesson we learned today, class?

« **Reply #47 on:** January 20, 2010, 04:39:50 PM »

dealer miss diagnosed it i ran with what they said....turns out to not be the problem....so the dealer quoted me for 4-5 thousand to do the job, that would have not cured the problem....as of right now i am with rental car 3,000 into the truck! i have a funny feeling of what it is, but only saturday will tell i am going to dig into it again, and see what it is that i have missed! also going at it with a different strategy the problem is going away slowly, but hey even if i do this for less then 4k i consider myself still good! and will be good for another 100k....so as far as a lesson learned i dont think so! only cost 60 bucks to get the seals again, and the gasket sealer....and another 50 on the 4th oil change in 2 months....so no lesson learned as of yet mr brad....im at a catch 22 cause i would be looking at probably 2 grand to have the shop do it

If you haven't learned a lesson from your woes over the past month, well then..................

« **Reply #49 on:** January 20, 2010, 05:33:46 PM »

no lesson to be learned thus far....just dont trust the dealer is about what it boiled down to for me, if i would have just taken it to these guys first they would have caught the balancer....which the dealer couldnt catch! dealer had my truck 3 days, diesel specialists had the truck one hour when they found the prob....however if they both would have done the injectors, both would be around the same price! im still a grand shy of it....and i can thank the dealer for that....because for one i wouldnt just keep throwing parts at it without knowing the problem thats always spendy, but as of now it is what it is, and if everyone is sick of hearing it i'll stfu
