This KIT can get your Injectors Armature Clearance to what they were when new of .004" to .005" any time. Even when stock injectors have some of them that have been replaced with newer Injectors or have been rebuilt.
This kit will make your truck start faster cold and run with more power and EXTEND the life of your injectors up to 200K miles more; by renewing the armature plate clearance to .004" to,005". like new injectors. WITHOUT REMOVING YOUR INJECTORS. Over 3000 kits sold. This Dualpurposekit will allow you to shim one set of Injector no mater what your Armature clearances are
FROM INSTRUCTIONS
If You have a tight .002” or less then add a .004” Armature Shim and then add a .005” Solenoid shim. (.002” & .003”).
If you have a loose .002” or above add a .002” Armature Shim and .003” Solenoid Shim.
Ifyour truck has been RUNING GREAT warmbut, has STARTEDMISSING OR is HARD TO START:You may not need to rebuild your injectors .You may only need to install THIS Shim Kit, becauseyou may haveLOW ARMATURE TO ADAPTER HOUSING CLEARANCE causing astiction affect.THIS IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS CAUSING INJECTORS TO STOP WORKING!!!

Shims make your injectors last longer. So you want to shim what it takes to get over a .004" clearance under the armature. New they are over .004"and under .005"But, you must put the same amount of shims (plus .001" for poppet valve up-stop wear) under the solenoids to keep the armature from hitting the solenoids.
The important clearance is between the solenoid and the armature plate when the solenoid is energized. The clearance Must be keep close to .003"(between the solenoid and the Armature) plus or minus .001" to work right: which is hard to measure without energizing the solenoid. When new they were .003".
Most injectors do not need internal rebuild
Kit Workson mostHEUI injectors; 1994 - 2003Ford7.3L PowerStroke, International T444E / DT466e / 1530E. Also works onCat 3126B top solenoid , InternationalPerkins4.5L, 6.0L,& 1300ediHEUIinjectors.

2.Packets of FOURTY + .002"and FOURTY +.003" stainless steelSOLENOID SPACER SHIMS, placed under all four corners ofthesolenoid, to increase theSolenoid to armature clearance back to over stock, whenSolenoid is energized. To keep the armature plate from hitting theSolenoid and setting a code after shimming. WHEN YOU SHIM THE ARMATURE .004", YOU NEED TO SHIM THE SOLENOID WITH .005" OF SHIMS WHICH IS .001" OVER WHAT YOU INSTALLED UNDER THE ARMATURE BECAUSE OF POPPET VALVE UP WEAR..

I am a 76+ year old mechanic that has worked on a fleet of 7.3Power Strokes for the last23+ years. I want to help the do-it-your-self person keep their trucks running by sharing the knowledge I have learned over 50 years experience. My instructions are written from myexperience of working on trucks andadding shims to many trucks.
