I was surprised by the cost quoted for injectors because I have several common rail injectors on a shelf where I display failed parts. So I checked the injector price between my old L5740 with low pressure mechanical injectors and my L6060 with a common rail having electronic injectors. It is about $250 for the L5740 injectors and $650 for the L6060 injectors. My L6060 uses about half the fuel of the L5740 but at the low consumption of either will take a lot of hours to make up the cost difference; however, I bought the L6060 primarily for the cleaner air due to my wife’s asthma problem and that is a huge difference. I notice it too even in the cab.
Interesting.
My L6060 uses more fuel to do the same work as my M9960.
Considerably more.
