I used a socket to remove the Nozzle assembly. I took them to a good diesel shop here to check them out. They said the injectors definatly needed a rebuild and were not ionizing the fuel. $250 for reman or $125ea new. I told them to reman mine.... HTH

Yeah, it's a 27mm deep socket and a long bar to overcome the factory thread lock. I'm taking them in tommorrow. I'm hoping to go re-man as well, $$ is tight.
did you check out the prices at 4 wheel auto in edmonton? repairing or rebuilding might not be worth it.

Well I saw the price for the nozzles, but I would still have to bring them in to have them assembled. The re-man injectors are fairly pricey at $79 ea. I suppose I'll have to wait and see whether this is a good idea or not.

Moose,
Is $79/ea. the quote from the fuel injection shop in Naniamo? If so, they are way cheaper on the mainland. You could courier them and still be ahead.
On the tools needed, a 27mm deep socket and a flare nut wrench, (17mm I think) to avoid rounding off the nuts for the injection pipes. Be careful not to torque the overflow pipe or the injection pipes.

Loyd will charge you about the same or a bit more once done, you only other option is to have them sent over to Vancouver Jims Fuel Injection, if memorey serves for around 50.00 a pop.
I actually purchased the nozzles and rebuilt them myself, I do not have a injector tester, put the original shims back in and hoped for the best.
Drop by if your in town, never seen a right hand drive 70 series.

No it will cost you that much, I have had many several rebuilt through Lloyd.
There is another company in Campbell River, can`t remember the name off the top of my head.
Stay away from a small company in Ladysmith, called something like Mid Island Turbo, 105.00$ each.

If I can go from 17mpg to 25mpg...it'd be worth every penny. BTW, can I purge the fuel system quickly by just turning the engine over and cracking the nuts on the injectors or do I actually have to pump the filter?
