    I don’t remember to be honest. I could probably dig out the invoice. They were nice enough, it just was a crappy job for them. Drop the spades, winch like 25-50 feet - rinse and repeat til the top of the hill.

    I've had it happen to where the Injector bore in the head was slightly outta round from Cummins half #### machine work, the injector o-ring would not seal on the top o-ring and was getting fuel in the oil.

    Pain in the hind end to find too.

    He said to not take it as a negative but how can you not? Just disheartening is all. Put everything into trying to do a good job and it’s not good enough. I’ve never failed at truck driving until today. The driving part he called impeccable though but it was hardly a comfort

    It was dripping fuel running out from between the front and center head. I changed the fuel crossover and O-rings several times to no avail. It seemed to come and go with heat. Then a couple days ago it started chirping, so I know something ain’t right with that head. Now that it’s off, I can’t find anything, but I ain’t puttin it back on.

    And of course this new one ain’t going on my motor either.

    @jamespmack we rebuilt this motor June of ‘17. Three brand new head from China. It immediately was putting fuel in the water. I pulled all injectors and couldn’t really find anything. Thought maybe I saw a crack in one of the cups on the center head, so I replaced it. Didn’t fix it so I replaced the other two. That fixed it and I ran those heads till the I broke a valve in December. Figured since I wasn’t having much luck with the Chinese stuff I’d use a Cummins reman. But it leaked fuel from the get-go. Now this.
