Got it. Thank you, Sir. I think the shop needs to inspect the return lines first. When they find they are restricted and fix that, I think they need to pay to have someone fix the issues it caused unfortunately.
Sound like an cracked injector body, not a head gasket as posted originally. Damn the luck.
I have doubt that it hurt an injector if that makes you feel better.
Hopefully they can find and rectify the issue, then change your oil and filter and you'll be good to go.
I would recommend you warn them that a CP3 seal or damaged injector seal could be a future result of their mistake, and you'll be watching the oil level like a hawk.
So....injector is fine, just the body is cracked? I thought it was all the same. Are they separate where the body could be swapped cheaper? Enlighten me.
When he said "well, I guess I should have blown through the return line" I got a little scared. Those lines I gave them were setting outside on the frame for a long time. Probably full of bugs and mud.
Well, that's even better news! Once he gets back with me and confirms the blockage, I will figure out what to do. Best option is probably to haul it to Blackwell and let my buddy Trent go through it. He's opened his diesel shop back up since he moved back home. He's one I trust to do it correctly.
Or, maybe if it was blocked, maybe I take oil and a filter down there, change them out, and start it and see if it still leaks into the crank case. That's would make my day. And I might have to sent you a bottle of whiskey for your efforts.
And he didn't tell me the part about "he didn't blow through the return line" until lunch time so that was news to me about an hour and a half ago.
I have a new fuel filter I can toss on it. I bought it at about the 80K mile mark. Never got around to put it on. At 175K miles now...and still on the original fuel filter from the factory. I'll admit it. I'm not ashamed. LOL
You should be ashamed, and I dare say chastised for your negligence.
Jory...c'mon man. The fact you even have any fuel pressure is a miracle in itself!I have a new fuel filter I can toss on it. I bought it at about the 80K mile mark. Never got around to put it on.

Wow! I've let my air dog go a couple yrs before and felt terrible about it. And that was only maybe 20k miles total! Although after totaling my Jetta, I'm driving the truck to work now, minimum 100mi a day, so it's due again anytime.I have a new fuel filter I can toss on it. I bought it at about the 80K mile mark.

Seriously though, the filter on this truck has 175K miles on it. It's never been changed. I think its a miracle myself. I just never think about it. I definitely get it changed when I get it back. I'll take a picture of it when I pull it.
They are pulling the fuel lines right now to see if there is a blockage in the return and going to do an oil change before they start it up to see if anything else got permanently damaged.
