Just purchased new Sac 45% injectors for my 03 DMax. Installation next week at RF Garage in Galt Ca. Rick has the Silver 70 Chevelle with a DMax. Car hauls a z z! I’ll let y’all know how the truck runs.

How much did those run you? I just put 8 remans in my 02 couple months ago.

Steph, I’ve done it twice so I did some homework. The Bosch will fail again even with additives, prefilters and fingers crossed. Pretty sure they are around 3200$. The way I look at it now, I’ve already wasted money twice on Bosch parts and labor, I love this truck, I don’t want a new truck so here I am. I know others who have had one bosch set and they are fine but others worse than mine so I’m done playing. I’ll spend up one time and if these fail down the road I’ll buy something newer. You might be able to find them cheaper but I’m going through a shop out here, RF Garage in Galt Ca. The other option is upgrade engine to an 05 and they do all the legal paper work. I almost went that route but hearing such good reviews from the Sac injectors (Diesel Place site)I decided to go that way. I have a rear tank, Hastings huge diesel water/fuel separator before main tank too. Everything goes there first.
For sure run the snot out of yours, I’ll keep u posted or u can message me for a phone number.

BTW, I retired as a diesel mechanic 31 years and after just going my heater core at home.. Rick can do the injectors.. I’m good with that!!

This article from 2015, watched him run 10.80's easily in Fontana S/ST.

I got mine from a very reputable local Diesel shop. I put them in myself. The truck is used for summer towing only. So if it goes 50k miles im ok with that.

Just make sure you use the GM filter and change sooner than they say to.

GM or Baldwin filters only. Whatever you do don't use one of the black plastic filters. When I worked at the Chevy dealer I had a fleet customer who was having all kinds of fuel system problems using the black plastic filters. He switched to Baldwin filters and had no more problems.

I just changed my filter, installed a Wix 33960XE and its black plastic.....good or bad. Had a Parker on it

I have been told by the local diesel injection service to not use the black plastic filters. They see nothing but trouble with trucks using them. I ordered a stock of Delco originals from Rockauto, and they were cheaper.

$3200.
Wow! Ouch.

I'm normally a wix filter fan, but not for a d-max fuel filter. I'd change it today.

Well that sucks, that filter was like $50

My thoughts exactly. I won't be running out to buy one for sure.

+ 300$ Core charge, I’m replacing steel fuel injector lines.
25 month warranty. Bosch has less?

Labor includes tune time.
Not trying to justify my cost or sell them. I did my homework, this works for me.

Well we just got the truck back. Smooth, quiet and boy does it run well. To Me ( I can't hear doo doo anymore) it sounds way quieter..

If you are interested, Ill put some laps on it and get back to you.
