- If one or more injectors fail it may be necessary to replace up to 6 injectors at the time of repair.
There will be situations when all 6 injectors do not have to be replaced. Refer to next paragraph to determine which injectors should be replaced.
- If an injector repair has previously been performed after approximately 01Oct07 on any of the listed engines, only the injectors that were not replaced at that time should be replaced. This should further be verified by comparing the injector serial numbers in the engine to a range of 3B115776403B to 3B11676551F9. Disregard the first and last two characters in the serial number (in t
