Saved a Buck.....Cost You A Dollar - Cheap Parts
Here's exactly why you don't cheap out on parts. Cheap o-rings used in some ETEC injectors. I'm not sure it was even the customer themselves that cheaped out, but someone that was working on the unit. Thats why I always recommend OEM, unless you KNOW the source your getting the parts from is quality.
Look at the disintegration and swelling on the aftermarket o-rings, they almost fell off the injector when I pulled them apart. Yikes!
EDIT: Wow, meant to name the thread "Saved a penny....cost you a buck" haha.

I see the same thing every now and again on 6.0 diesels. The Dorman oil cooler has o-rings that don't agree with engine oil, they swell, break down, and end up polluting the high pressure oil system. It's a mess by the time they stop running....
