SHIPPING POLICY

Tamerx Diesel Products ships via UPS Ground. Next day air shipping can be arranged for a reasonable price of anywhere from $50.00 - $100.00 depending on the weight of the product and your location. 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 Detroit 50 Series and 60 Series Fuel Injector (OEM 5236978) plays a pivotal role in ensuring your engine operates efficiently. Fuel injectors are designed to deliver the right amount of fuel into the combustion chamber, allowing your engine to run smoothly and with optimal fuel efficiency. Whether you are driving a heavy-duty truck or a bus powered by Detroit engines, maintaining your fuel injectors is essential for long-term performance.

Understanding the Function of the Fuel Injector

Fuel injectors like the OEM 5236978 are critical in maintaining engine performance and efficiency. Here’s how they work:

  • Precise Fuel Delivery
    •  The injector precisely delivers fuel into the combustion chamber at the correct time, ensuring efficient combustion and smooth engine operation.
  • Optimized Fuel Efficiency
    •  Proper fuel atomization allows for complete combustion, resulting in better fuel efficiency and lower operational costs.
  • Reduced Emissions
    •  A well-functioning injector reduces harmful emissions by ensuring the fuel burns more completely, which is especially important for environmental regulations.
  • Engine Longevity
    •  Regular maintenance and timely replacement of fuel injectors help prolong the life of your Detroit 50 or 60 Series engine, preventing issues like rough idling or poor fuel economy.

How to Maintain Your Detroit Fuel Injector

  • Regular Cleaning
    • Over time, fuel injectors can get clogged due to debris or fuel impurities. Regular cleaning ensures optimal fuel flow.
  • Monitor Fuel Quality
    •  Using high-quality diesel fuel can prevent clogging and wear on the fuel injectors, which can extend their lifespan.
  • Timely Replacement
    • If you experience rough idling, increased fuel consumption, or black smoke, it may be time to replace your fuel injectors with a genuine OEM 5236978.

The Detroit 50 Series and 60 Series Fuel Injector (OEM 5236978) is an integral part of maintaining engine performance, fuel efficiency, and reduced emissions. At TamerX Diesel Parts, we understand the importance of keeping your engine running smoothly. Investing in quality replacement parts like this fuel injector will help ensure your Detroit engine operates at peak performance for years to come.

Fuel injectors are vital for delivering the right amount of fuel into the engine, ensuring efficient combustion and optimal performance. However, over time, fuel injectors can develop issues such as clogging, leaking, or failing altogether. Testing fuel injectors regularly can help identify problems early and prevent engine damage. In this blog, we’ll cover how you can test fuel injectors to determine if they are functioning properly.

Steps to Test a Fuel Injector

  • Visual Inspection

    •  Start by visually inspecting the fuel injectors. Look for any visible signs of leaks, cracks, or damage around the injector and its seals. Pay close attention to the wiring connectors and O-rings, as these can also deteriorate over time.

  • Check Engine Light

    •  If your check engine light is on, it’s worth using an OBD-II scanner to read the error codes. Injector-related codes can provide insight into whether there is an issue with one or more injectors.

  • Listen for Clicking Sound

    • With the engine running, use a mechanic’s stethoscope or a long screwdriver to listen for a clicking sound at each injector. A healthy injector will produce a distinct clicking sound as it opens and closes. A lack of clicking could indicate a stuck or faulty injector.

  • Fuel Pressure Test

    • A fuel pressure gauge can help determine if the injectors are delivering the correct amount of fuel. Low pressure may indicate clogged injectors, while high pressure could suggest an issue with the fuel system or injectors.

  • Resistance Testing

    •  Using a multimeter, you can measure the electrical resistance of each injector. Compare the readings to the manufacturer’s specifications. A significant deviation from the normal range could indicate a bad injector.

  • Leak Test

    •  To check for leaks, turn the engine off and pressurize the fuel system. Inspect the injectors for any signs of fuel leakage. A leaking injector can cause poor fuel economy and performance issues.

  • Injector Balance Test

    • Some mechanics perform an injector balance test using specialized equipment. This test measures how each injector affects the engine’s RPM drop when disconnected. Significant differences in performance between injectors can indicate a malfunctioning unit.

Testing your fuel injectors is essential for maintaining engine efficiency and avoiding costly repairs down the road. Regular inspections, listening for proper operation, and using tools like multimeters and fuel pressure gauges can help you determine if your injectors are in good condition. If you notice any issues, such as fuel leaks or electrical problems, it’s best to replace faulty injectors promptly. At TamerX Diesel Parts, we offer high-quality fuel injectors to keep your engine running smoothly.
