Injector O-rings

I ran out of fuel and I lost the whole bank on one side of the engine. I thought it may be the harness etc. but the shop that did the work charged me to check the injectors (good) and replaced all the injector o-rings for 1200bucks. Does that sound right that it was a whole bank of o-rings instead of the harness or injectors. I have however heard the o-rings is a common problem w/7.3

yeah they do go bad with alot of miles. But that seems like alot of money, but i dunno for sure

Thats what I was thinking. Too much money but I was out of state so you know? If it skipped etc. I would say maybe a couple orings but not running at all on one side makes me think it was harness etc. which should have been a lot cheaper.

Injector O-rings are liek $7.00 per injector.... the rest is labor and diagnostic time I guess. Changing 4 injectors worth of O-rings is a 2 hour job for me, and I'm not a "shop mechanic".

^ agree'd.. it's not that big of a job and should have been FAR less then 1200 dollars.
