Oh sorry, I haven't changed the injector yet. Sorry for the confusion, I'm doing it tomm. Just wondering if it's a good idea to change the fuel pump? Does an injector just go bad on its own, or is it a symptom of another issue like a failing fuel pump or old fuel filter? When I changed the fuel filter 2 weeks ago, it was quite dirty. Now that I know, I will do that every 20,000km and change my oil every 7,000km. Thanks in advance!!

If your injector is causing a misfire that only occurs during the first cold start of the day, then I would recommend at least testing the fuel pressure. Low fuel pressure will cause a injector to loose lubrication and then fail.

So funny!! I had my #7 go on my truck a week ago. Question for you, its an '03 with 200,000km on it. I scanned the truck and it said ICP sensor and #7 cylinder. I changed the fuel filter and water separator, drove it for a week and it only read #7 cylinder. Do you think I need to change my fuel filter as well? Or is it possible that the injector just went bad by itself? The fuel filter was fairly dirty, but I haven't noticed a lack in power. Only a minor idle shudder and lots of exhaust smok

If your reading a return misfire, on the same cylinder, even after replacing the injector, you may have another concern like a sticking valve. A fuel filter concern would effect more than just one specific cylinder. Since it is on the same cylinder, it is possible that the injector did not get the correct torque to crush the copper washer. You could remove the injector and inspect for failed sealing washer.

srmastertech, why are the "new" injectors from Motorcraft remanufactured at 01:04? I priced injectors at my local ford dealer and they wanted $420 each. I assumed the price was for brand new injectors since I can buy reman ones for much cheaper elsewhere. I know reman are supposed to be just as good and to the same specs, but this kinda of surprised me. Your thoughts?

@chadd01971

A reman injector is just as good as a new injector. I would call around to another dealer to verify your local area. If they are both high, buy on line, like from fordparts to search.

There is smoke coming out of the exhaust too. I'm certain its an injector, I'll test the fuel pressure too tho. Thanks for the info! Hopefully tomm after the new injector is in I'll have no smoke and a smooth idle! :)

what is the total labor time to replace all the injectors?
