k74 injectors....servicing

#1 by Nik Rite , Tue Jul 17, 2018 8:56 pm

My truck is running really well. I have no service history on it and this winter I plan to take it off the road and give it a good servicing...I was thinking of taking the injectors out and having them serviced/cleaned. Is it worth while doing this. Im keen to learn and reckon after 140k miles of diesel they need a good looking at...thoughts? any ideas who to send them to and how much? Ta Nik

Your looking at about £35 per injector to recon them. Diesel bob is good.
