    How much is this going to cost? How did you know that you needed to replace the injectors?

    The truck has a horrible miss when you throttle into it. It also has a wicked pop when it idles, and it's blowing raw fuel out of the stacks. The set including labor is going to be 3600 the cummins dealer wanted 6 grand and couldn't do it until Monday.

    I think the other 5 are pretty weak so I'm going to just put a set in it.

    I'm glad this post came up because I'm about to replace an injector in my m11 and I am wondering after I remove the shaft will the injector be easy to remove or do I need a special tool to get it out of the hole? Any help would be much appreciated because I sure don't want to break something else!

    Rebel, a manual for your m11 is a very valuable tool. It will give specs and show how to do it. You have to set the torque values throughout as you install. At least on my n14.



    Ps. We were getting reman rx injectors for around $250 from volvo. No core as i had purchased a few from craigslist. Guys at our yard change injectors one a year. In 6 years he has a new set. Says it cushions the blow a little.

    An overhead should be included at that price.

    Was just looking at a truck with an N14 in it. Local cummins shop quoted me $530 a piece for injectors.
