80 series injector clean, will it work

[skid]

been putting off the need to clean the injectors for a few years now and still I am nowhere close to having the stupid amounts of money required to clean them

BUT......................


I have been told of a cheap trick involving pure injector cleaner into a new fuel filter and start her, injectors are cleaned and away you go


thoughts please

I did that on my Safari and it does work, one in the new filter and another one in the tank, seems to clear and clean them well, was a big cloud of black smoke when I did it too.

If you have left them for years them doing anything but replacing them will not work. Once they get beyond a certain gummed up stage they have to be replaced.

They also need to be checked to make sure the tips/nozzles are spraying correctly and not out of one side etc making your piston hot one side and cold the other leading to PISTON failure etc.

theres a few threads on the net about adding 2 stroke to your diesel lubricates pumps and cleans injectors ...

[crazyclark31]

two stroke oil is good for lubing the pump and quieting the injectors as well as keeping them clean but if the injectors are dirty/worn then it will only quieten them down(alot).

[red-devil]

how much 2 stroke do u add

I've run 200:1 in my Safari's for the last few years.

Just don't use the synthetic or flash race oils. The cheapest stuff is the best.
I average about 300mls a tank. It doesn't have to be exact but 200:1 is the recomended amount

These guys in Aussie are really good to deal with and cheaper than anyone here in NZ.

[badnuz]

my ole 80 had terrible knock and smoke issues, once new (re-con) injectors were fitted it had bucket loads more go and way less smoking...

but alas, not cheap.... who-ever you use lol

1HDT injectors are 2 stage and there is only 2 places in NZ that can recon them properly.

Who would that be??

[strx7]

Alltech in Auckland and a company in Dunedin/Timaru from memory.

[DieselBoy]

Diesel, Turbo and Automotive and Waikato Turbo Diesel in Hamilton will do them.

They use a rebuild kit which saves the mucking around with the settings. The kit has some fancy doohickys that preset everything.

[DaveM]

Had mine done in Nelson at a Diesel specialist

Talk to Wade at D N T in Petone, he may be able to assist you....

Try water injection, the best water comes from the whakatiki river.
