    Just had new turbo and one injector put in my 2006 detroit 12.7 to a problem I had. Iran is three days after I got this fixed and the problem has come back. Check engine light comes on and the truck runs really rough like it's missing . Seems to only do this at the start of my day when it's cold out . The check engine light comes on for about 10 seconds then goes off and comes back on. When it was first doing this the clothes showed 2 bad injectors but we only replace one because when we hook the computer back up to it later on a only show one bad injector so I have to three days of running yet I am having the same symptoms after three days of running it since I put new turbo and injector

    by your description it sounds like your problem from the start is the injector harness,not injectors.you might want to try a different shop.throwing parts blindly at a problem is very expensive( $2000 turbo/$500 per injector)good luck.

    Why dont you do a balance test and see if an injector is not firing?? Then you can test the harness to see if the signal is getting to the injector.
