Yikes. Who did you get those injectors from and who installed them? Those were grossly over torqued

They were in the truck. I’m changing my injection pump and decided to go through my injectors while I’m in there. I was thinking overtorqued. They have some kind of engraving on them

Where's the crack?
I'm only seeing 2 pics, then a broken image link.

Here it is again. Also the engraving mark on the body if it means anything

My guess is these are rebuilt injectors but can't say who did them. Sad mess if you ask me. When you removed them did they come out very hard or easy. Just make sure you have the old gasket out of the bore if they did not come out with the old injector. NEVER stack a new gasket on the old gasket. Install torque is 35 ft lbs.

Yes they came out easy. But two were like this and looked hammered on

I was thinking to many shims and a big wrench? probably thought it said 135'. I got the same marks on my Injectors.

Glad you fixed it but what did you set the timing at?

For right now just a hair advanced from static marks. I need to have it timed correctly but for now it should be close enough to run ok.

Any Southern California runs for people with a timing meter???
