Exergy Performance Fuel Injector Engine Stand









Why Exergy Performance? Duramax and Cummins Injectors!

With our background in OE development and manufacturing, we bring a unique perspective to the high-performance world. We know what features and specifications need to be to ensure proper function, we know how to produce them and how to verify they are correct. The verification process/equipment we use is very untypical of a standard diesel repair shop and allows us to look at many more system performance characteristics beyond average fuel output.
We test from idle to full power using factory calibration points and a few of our own points added for the high-performance market. We can fully map injector sets and have done so for a number of customers who want to best utilize their stand-alone ECU, or EFI Live capabilities.

We use equipment developed and used by Bosch for the design and development of diesel fuel systems (specifically common rail) and have the expertise on staff to properly operate and maintain this very sophisticated equipment. Some of our staff were part of the development of this equipment and common rail injectors when they were employed by Bosch. This equipment is not only able to measure injection quantity, but also shot-to-shot consistency and injection timing.
Based on the injector sets we have analyzed from others neither shot-to-shot consistency or injection timing is being controlled. In our opinion not only are these parameters not being controlled, they likely are not measured. They are making changes that bring the injectors output into calibration at a few low-pressure test points, but in doing so they are unknowingly affecting the hydraulic response of the injector to the electrical drive signal. We have seen injection timing vary up to 3 crank degrees on freshly “reman/blueprinted” injectors within the same set.

In our opinion, the preceding discussion points are “why” you should choose Exergy. However, you do not need to just take our opinion, read on to learn what some of the top engine tuners’ have said about our products and services.
When considering a high-performance fuel system supplier be sure to ask if they provide test results from your injectors. Most performance injector sources measure output but how many are testing at full rail pressure? ...measuring shot-to-shot consistency? ...injection timing?

In summary, our “toolbox” (i.e., system knowledge, test equipment, modification processes, supplier base, ...) is very extensive. Most of us have been in the diesel business in excess of 15 years and have worked on the design and development of diesel fuel systems both mechanically and electronically controlled for everything from ships to single cylinder utility engines.

Duramax 6.6L Valve Lash Adjustment

Duramax 6.6L Valve Adjustment  Duramax Diesel Pickup Truck This is one method used to set the valve lash on your duramax engine Valve adjustment should be performed anytime the heads are removed. It's also good practice to adjust valves during service that require valve cover remove.  TDC (Top Dead Center) First start with, locating the timing mark on the front engine cover and the harmonic balance.  Rotate the crankshaft in order to bring the number 1 cylinder to TDC (Top Dead Center) of the exhaust stroke. This mark should be aligned with the mark on the engine.  To adjust the valves, start by loosening all the jam nuts with a 14mm wrench, you will also need a flat screwdriver to make the adjustments. Adjust the valve using a .012" feeler gauge Use your .012” feeler gauge between the rocker arm and the valve bridge as pictured. The correct setting is had when there is slight resistance when moving the feeler gauge. It should not be so tight th

Duramax Glow Plugs Operation Glow Plug Relay

                                                    Cold Weather Starts and Glow Plugs  Glow Plug System Description Duramax diesel engine, air alone is compressed in the cylinder. Then, after the air has been compressed, a charge of fuel is sprayed into the cylinder and ignition occurs, due to the heat of compression. Eight glow plugs are used as an aid to starting. The glow plug initial ON time will vary based on the system voltage and temperature. Lower temperatures cause longer ON times all the times. The ECM provides glow plug operation after starting a cold engine. This post-start operation is initiated when the ignition switch  is returned to Run, from the Start position. This operation helps clean up excessive white smoke or poor idle quality after starting. Control of the instant start system, glow plugs is determine by an electronic glow plug control unit and  4.7 volt  glow plugs, requiring  2 seconds  to heat up to  1,000°C (1,832°F)  . The temperature and t

How to Remove LB7 Duramax Fuel Injectors Step By Step Instructions

LB7 Duramax Diesel 6.6L R&R Remove and Replace  Working on any automobile engine can be intimidating, and that is the very reason why mechanics stay in business, However some tasks that seem intimidating are not actually that difficult if you have the right tools and the right knowledge to complete the task at hand, The following instructions are on how to remove LB7 Duramax Fuel Injectors. This task is often considered a difficult process to complete, but these instructions will break down the process and make this task seem simple. Duramax Diesel LB7 Engine 2001-2004 GMC or Chevrolet Pick-up Truck  Drain the Coolant find the drain valve on the passenger side of the wheel well and drain the coolant. To capture the debris,use a bucket and a cloth for a filter. Caution: This step is very important to ensure the combustion chamber won't fill with coolant during the last step of removing the  fuel injectors if an injector cup pull out during this step.
