    Sprinter running rough after injector change.

    Not true, the '05 does have coded injectors. Each has a unique # sequence that should be provided to the ecm via DRB lll or DAD unit. These numbers are based on injector flow and the ecm uses this info to fine tune fuel trim, unique to each cylinder. This optimizes power and efficiency. That...

    Reman motor using oil

    Wayne put a remanufactured head on the engine that was in the Sprinter when I bought it. It lasted 20k miles... He wouldn't answer the phone or return calls when I tried to reach him. The shop that replaced the engine (Dr A's associates) found several examples of shoddy workmanship by Wayne...

    Reman motor using oil

    Same experience here, and worse, with two of them. I bought mine thru Chrysler, remanufactured by Detroit Diesel in Kansas. The first one burned almost as much oil as fuel, like a quart every 1200 miles. Just about the time I convinced them to do an oil consumption study, the head gasket...

    Cargo Van Bad market?

    My point is that the cost of living is 9.4% higher than it was in 2010. With regard to the cost of oil, that has a LOT to do with the current lack of freight. http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/01/27/us-caterpillar-results-idUSKBN0L01E420150127
