Jordan Carriers is BAD

Don't know about all that load shifting BS. But it does make engine run rough; Had 2012 Volvo do this last summer. Just changed one injector and no problems. Take run and stop somewhere comfy and call service. All diesels are going to get rough when running on reduced % of power. Call DOT if you think it;s that bad.

 

Who told you that bad injectors can cause a ld. shift??
That's pure B.S< I have had injectors go in my Detroit and no ld. shift. Rough running motor yes.
Yes trk. might shut down, but just do like other poster said. Find a shop on the road and cll your break down crew...

 

Load shifting due to bad injector? That's a good one LOL.

You should have taken it to the scale and asked them to park you they would have laughed you out of there. Can't believe you quit a job over that. Must not want to drive a truck very badly. Good grief where does the industry find these people?

Tell me because I have to know. Who told you a bad injector can cause a load to shift? NHTSA bulletin/recall? Volvo TSB?

 

The way I read the post is they got sent home. Fired. Not quit

 

Unless your load isn't tied down at all I can't see how a bad injector could cause a load shift.
However, with Volvo it is engine suicide to drive it with a bad injector, I don't know for sure with the D13 but I had a D12 many years ago that an injector went out on and was advised by a very good Volvo mechanic not to pull a load with it like this, apparently the diesel was part of the cooling system and if the injector wasn't injecting fuel it would roast the piston & cylender head.

If your company has no mechanical savvy and tells you to keep driving by golly I'd drive her till she dropped!

 

This has to be a joke. You lost your job because of something some nitwit told you about trucks? LOLOL!


(pardon...I believe I am past the laughing fits.)


Okay. Some nitwit gave you bad intel. Why didnt you double check with the forum BEFORE refusing to drive the truck? Injectors go bad. It happens. It's not safety issue and it wont affect your load. And it wont kill your engine at highway speed. As stated, loss of power and rough idle is it.

Everyone else who may not know anything about the mechanics of a truck, listen up: BEFORE you go to war with your company, before you quit over a perceived safety issue, post about it and get a 2nd opinion from us. Losing a job over something like this is a bonehead move. Dot let some nitwit you work with cost you a job.

 

Ok but I'd still call that quitting. It's basically a work refusal.
