My 92 pete with a 3406 cat has been having trouble starting. Took her in and the shop charged me 1700 bucks to adjust the injector timings 6 degrees.
My question is, was this a fair price, or should I be finding a new go-to shop? Thanks.
Shop adjusting injector timings.

Did it fix the issue? They likely had to do some testing to come to that conclution. Sight glasses on fuel lines to check for air and what not.
-
1700 for overhead, sounds pricey. If they checked and reprogammed trim codes and fixed other things to get truck running, maybe. Need an itemized bill to double check.

The name PETE or CAT means you expect to pay more, so they charge more. not trying to be funny, but true I.M.O.

It's a 92. No trim codes or CPU to reprogram. It's mechanical with either an a or b model. -
hmm.. thanks, I was thinking newer. forgot to read.. -
Injector timing means they removed the fuel pump timing advance. Pined both and moved the crank timing. That all takes time. Especially to get it right.

After my head popped out of my rear, is this a PEEC engine? 8PN or 4CK prefix? Even if, $1700.00 is way too extreme.Last edited: Jul 29, 2014
