Have you personally purchased a specific product directly from
Pensacola Diesel and were honestly dissatisfied with
the product and/or service ?

If so, then contribute your personal experience to the discussion

Regarding " talking trash " :backoff

My definition of " talking trash " is badmouthing a person
or business based upon heresay or gossip and not
firsthand experience :yell:

I did personally purchase a set of " pop tested injectors " from someone
here and after having problems with them I paid to have them
pop tested & watched the guy test them ...

Only to find they pop tested in the 1500 range on (7)
of them with (1) at 1720

My personal experience has been very satisfactory with Pensacola Diesel ;Really



Jim

Yes, two bad injection pumps and 8 injectors, two were no good.

And yes, I agree with you. Talking trash by heresay, is crappy.
My experience was first hand.

I've got their IP on my truck now, runs fine. Bought for two reasons, it was cheap with no core return, and I have an extra core to possibly Moose someday.

I bought a set of Pensacola remans so soon I'll be pop testing them and reporting back. If my current set is a little sloppy and these look good on the tester they'll be going in. I won't say anything is poor quality until I see how it holds up in the work environment. One thing I have always heard here is that the new injectors need to be reset after 5000 miles, a service which Russ offers on the stuff he sells if I remember right. I just wonder if the remans are the same way and what happens if you don't reset new ones.

Nothe remans dont need it because the spring is used and has taken its set. the new ones will drop 1 to 300 lbs . My new set did this and that is how I figured it out'

What's interesting about rebuilding the IDI injectors is that what RL said is true the nozzles themselves are as expensive if not moreso than reman injectors themselves. I wonder if this is not the case for big buyers...if Standyne or United Technologies will actually sell the parts to somebody for cheap if they buy enough of them. Wasn't this the case with Bosch until recently? Also, I'd like to learn the skill of rebuilding them myself just so I know how...even if it's not particularly cost effective or something I would do. I have some bad ones I'm also going to tear into if I ever get my pop tester to work. I haven't tried the stuff OldBull suggested yet but that sounds like the way to make them work.
