Stock Injector Life

[StrokinVA]

I am sure this has been asked a thousand times already, but I tried using the search and didn't find much. So....

My trucks is an 01, I have 226k miles with the stock injectors, I have run amsoil for the last 120,000 mi. The truck still seems to have decent power but when hauling heavy I think I notice a little lag. ( I could be paranoid).

So the question is when should I really start saving for new / rebuilt injectors. How many miles did you guys get out of yours and what kind of things did you notice before and after you installed the new ones. I appreciate all the help thanks.

how can you tell if your injectors are going... i have 198k on my truck is a 99' i'm not really noticing a a change... well one that i havnt figured out (tranny, exhaust) but those are being fixed or have been... the truck was at 135 when i bought it...

anyway back to question... what are the sure fire signs of band or going bad injectors

I've seen them with 500k on them and still running strong. Probably not real common, maybe the guy was just really lucky. When I had my 95 they had 250k on them and still ran great.

Run a jug of Diesel Kleen through it and see if that helps.

mine seems to be a turd in my tow settings when pulling a light load, and i have 228,000 maybe we have the same problem. injectors dirty or bad? up pipes leakin? or weak turbo? possibly weak hpop?
