ISX injectors and overhead

I'll have to look that up. Having never worked on these big diesels before, a lot of the terminology is Greek to me. I did adhere strictly to the instructions rawze gave in the video.

 

I may have to put you on 'ignore', #### it....
After replacing what appeared to be the faulty injector, I was still finding fuel in the oil. I finally had a chance to get the truck into a shop and they found a hairline crack in the number two injector port.
I also had them drop the pan to check rod and main bearings. Bearings were shot, crank wasn't damaged though.
Attached are pictures of a couple of the bearings.

 

I'd say I was extremely fortunate that none of them spun.

I'm also going to give an endorsement to Schmid and Sons in David City, NE. Ten days from the time I dropped the truck off it was ready to go back to work.

 

I figure the only thing that saved the crank was being in a bath of diluted oil. If I'd tried to keep the fuel/oil at its proper level, the crank would probably have been toast, too.
