Sounds a fair price, a set of 4 new injectors for my Toyota would cost around £1000, if you shopped around, then you have the cost of all new one time use injector pipes plus various gaskets etc, lots of cleaning (seats) plus the new injectors need coding in, getting the job done by a workshop is over £1750, more at the main dealer.

Compare to ye olde days, last set of injectors i had cleaned and checked was on my Renault 21, injectors were no more difficult to remove than a set of spark plugs (before they started bolting individual coil packs on top) and my local Diesel injection shop whom i knew well for their lorry work did the job for as i recall £50 the lot.

Was that Northampton Electrical and Diesel GB

Indeed, a great place. run by people who had forgotten more than the competition would ever learn.

My Rolonoff bodied skip wagon of the time was gutless, International engine in it that was usually fitted to crawlers driving through hydraulics, we took on a contract r****** shifting job down in Bucks that involved around 4 trips a day to two of the roughest tips imagineable.

Slurry and mud axle deep, the gearbox hadn't got a low enough first gear and even hitting the rough patches flat out in first the revs dropped below turbo spool and it died.

Local Diesel shop spent a day on it, never made a sc*** of difference, i asked my boss if i could drop into Northanpton Diesels, while i waited they opened the top of the pump in situ and wound the fuel up a tad...result it went like hell with far more torque from several hundred RPM less, no more tip issues and used less fuel overall because it could be run at lower revs all the time.
