We will do everything we can to make sure that you get the service you need. We understand how important it is to receive your order as quickly as possible.
In most cases Tamerx Diesel Products only needs one address, as long as your product is shipping to the same location as your billing information. In order to eliminate credit card fraud, your billing information must match the credit card you provide.
The terms, conditions, and details of our warranty vary from product to product. Specific warranty details can be found below.
Tamerx Diesel Products provides a replacement warranty on all of our parts. The duration and mileage limitations of the warranty vary by product and are specified on the product's detail page/item listing.
Please note that the warranty covers replacement of the part and the cost of shipping the replacement part to you only. It does not cover any shop, labor, towing, or any similar or related costs. This is not a "money back guarantee".
If you experience a problem with your part or it is not functioning properly, the correct warranty procedure is to call us at (510) 257-1777 (8:00 AM - 5:00 PM ET Monday through Friday). Be sure to have your order number and/or other relevant order information ready so we can easily locate your order and resolve your issue as quickly as possible. From that point, we will review with you any troubleshooting steps that may need to be taken and other areas or systems that can be checked to rule out external problems contributing to your part's issue. If a replacement is determined to be necessary, we will then arrange for your replacement part to ship out ASAP and issue any necessary return shipping labels and/or documents.
As is the case for the majority of the diesel products sold on Tamerx Diesel Products, your part's warranty is active as soon as you install it. In some other cases, warranty activation is contingent upon you sending us your core (i.e., your old part). Tamerx Diesel Products will provide you a return shipping label for parts that have a warranty with a core return condition. When we have received your core return, the part's warranty coverage begins. We reserve the right to void the product warranty if your core is not received within the allotted time, or if it isn't received at all. If the warranty for the diesel part you are purchasing has a core return requirement, it will be clearly noted on the product detail page/item listing.
What is a Core Charge?
A core charge (also called "core deposit") is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda and is a standard requirement in the auto parts industry. For example, in many states, to promote recycling, you pay a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have a core charge, or core price, that works in essentially the same way as a soda can deposit.
30 Day Core Charge Hold
You authorize Tamerx Diesel Products, to hold your credit card for the specified core charge amount and that you agree to return your core with 30 days of receiving the purchased part. When we have received your core return, the hold is released and the core charge payment is canceled.
The customer, or parts buyer, is responsible for any shipping costs associated with core returns unless otherwise specified in the product listing/detail page. Tamerx Diesel Products offers prepaid UPS shipping labels (SKU numbers UPS-CR1 and UPS-CR2) for use in returning your core that are available for purchase on our website during your shopping/order process.
The shipping label you will need to use for the core return is dependent upon what part you are purchasing. UPS-CR1 is good for cores weighing up to 20 pounds. UPS-CR2 is appropriate for shipping cores weighing 21 pounds or more. You must include enough information with the core return that clearly identifies it as a.) a Core Return, and b.) contains enough information we can use to clearly associate the core return with your order. Including a copy of the invoice or packing slip that came with the original shipment, clearly marked "Core Return", is ideal. Alternately, you can include a note marked as "Core Return" that includes your order number, full name and address, and phone number or other contact information. Failure to include this information with your returned core will most likely delay any due core credit being issued and/or delay any applicable warranty activation. Core returns need to be for the exact part purchased and cannot be damaged. Substituting another part in place of the part you have purchased is not acceptable.
All fluids must be drained.
If you have purchased a set or a parts package, you will need to return cores for all components of the set. For example, if you have purchaed a high pressure oil pump with an IPR valve, you will need to return both HPOP and IPR valve cores to receive proper credit. If you have purchased an EGR cooler/EGR valve package, your core return must consist of an EGR cooler core and an EGR valve core, or core credit will not be given.
Core Charges are often mandated by state legislature, and, as such, the actual core charge and taxes on the charge may vary depending on the state in which you buy your part. The Tamerx Diesel Products core charge presented to you online today with your item is representative of the most common core charge.

The Caterpillar C10 and C12 engines are known for their durability and efficiency, and a key component contributing to this performance is the fuel injector, specifically the OEM 10R0968. Understanding the components of this injector can help you appreciate its importance and ensure your engine runs smoothly.
Key Components of the OEM 10R0968 Fuel Injector:
- Nozzle
- The nozzle is responsible for spraying fuel into the combustion chamber in a fine mist, ensuring efficient fuel combustion.
- Plunger
- This component controls the amount of fuel injected into the engine by moving up and down within the injector.
- Valve Assembly
- Regulates the flow of fuel from the injector to the nozzle, maintaining precise control over fuel delivery.
- Body
- The main structure that houses all other components, designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures.
- Seal Rings
- These ensure there are no fuel leaks from the injector, maintaining engine efficiency and preventing potential damage.
Benefits of Understanding These Components
Knowing these components can aid in diagnosing issues with your fuel injector. For instance, if your engine experiences rough idling or poor fuel economy, checking the plunger or nozzle for wear could be beneficial.
Maintenance and Replacement
Regular maintenance of the fuel injector components is crucial for optimal engine performance. If you suspect any part of the OEM 10R0968 injector is failing, consider replacing it with genuine Caterpillar parts to ensure longevity and reliability.
A failing fuel injector can lead to a range of issues that affect your vehicle's performance. Identifying these symptoms early can save you from costly repairs and downtime. Here are some key signs to watch for:
Symptoms to Watch For
- Engine Misfires
- One of the most common symptoms of a failing fuel injector is engine misfires. If the injector is not delivering fuel properly, the engine will not run smoothly.
- Poor Fuel Economy
- When fuel injectors fail, they can cause your engine to burn more fuel than necessary, resulting in decreased fuel efficiency.
- Rough Idling
- A failing fuel injector can cause your engine to idle roughly. If you notice unusual vibrations or a rough idle, it could be due to injector problems.
- Engine Knock
- An engine knock or pinging noise can indicate that the fuel mixture is too lean due to a faulty injector.
Key Symptoms of Failing Fuel Injectors
- Check Engine Light
- Illuminated when the onboard diagnostics detect a problem with the injectors.
- Fuel Odors
- Leaking injectors can cause fuel odors inside and outside the vehicle.
- Smoke from Exhaust
- Faulty injectors can lead to white or black smoke from the exhaust.
Why Address It Promptly?
Ignoring these symptoms can lead to more severe engine damage. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of faulty fuel injectors ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.
