As is the case for the majority of the diesel products sold on Drive On Diesel, 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). Drive On Diesel 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 Drive On Diesel, 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. Drive On Diesel 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 Drive On Diesel core charge presented to you online today with your item is representative of the most common core charge.

The Caterpillar C7 Fuel Injector for the 2004-2009 models, OEM 10R4762, is a crucial component for ensuring the smooth operation of your engine. However, like any mechanical part, it can encounter issues over time. This blog focuses on the common problems associated with this specific fuel injector and what to watch for.

  • Injector Clogging

    • Over time, fuel injectors can become clogged with deposits from fuel impurities. This can lead to reduced fuel flow and poor engine performance. Regular maintenance and using high-quality fuel can help mitigate this issue.

  • Injector Leaks

    • Leaks in the fuel injector can cause fuel to drip into the combustion chamber, leading to increased fuel consumption and potentially causing the engine to misfire. Inspecting the injectors regularly can help catch leaks early.

  • Electrical Failures

    •  The electrical components of the fuel injector, such as the solenoids and connectors, can fail due to wear and tear. This can result in the injector not opening or closing properly, leading to inconsistent fuel delivery.

  • Wear and Tear

    • Normal wear and tear over time can cause the injector nozzles to degrade. This can lead to poor fuel atomization, resulting in inefficient combustion and reduced engine power.

  • Injector Calibration Issues

    •  If the injectors are not properly calibrated, they can deliver either too much or too little fuel to the engine. This can cause a variety of performance issues, including rough idling, poor acceleration, and increased emissions.

Understanding the common issues associated with the Caterpillar C7 Fuel Injector (2004-2009: OEM 10R4762) can help you maintain optimal engine performance and avoid costly repairs. Regular maintenance, including cleaning and inspecting the injectors, can prevent clogging and leaks.

Fuel injectors are vital components in modern automotive engines, ensuring efficient and precise fuel delivery for optimal combustion. As vehicles have evolved, the role of fuel injectors has become increasingly critical in enhancing engine performance, fuel efficiency, and reducing emissions. This article will delve into how fuel injectors work, providing a clear understanding of their function within the engine.

A fuel injector is essentially an electronically controlled valve that delivers fuel into the combustion chamber at the right moment and in the correct amount. Here’s a step-by-step look at how a fuel injector operates:

  • Fuel Pressurization

    • Fuel is pressurized by the fuel pump and delivered to the injectors through the fuel lines. This high-pressure fuel is crucial for the atomization process, which ensures a fine mist of fuel for better combustion.

  • Electronic Control

    • The engine control unit (ECU) manages the fuel injectors. It uses data from various sensors, such as the oxygen sensor, throttle position sensor, and mass airflow sensor, to determine the optimal fuel delivery timing and amount.

  • Opening the Injector

    •  When the ECU sends an electrical signal to the injector, the solenoid inside the injector activates. This solenoid is a type of electromagnet that pulls a plunger or needle valve, opening the injector nozzle.

  • Fuel Atomization:

    • As the injector nozzle opens, the high-pressure fuel is sprayed into the combustion chamber in a fine mist. This atomization process is crucial for ensuring that the fuel mixes thoroughly with the air, allowing for complete combustion.

  • Controlled Timing

    • The timing of fuel injection is precisely controlled by the ECU to match the engine’s needs at any given moment. This precise control helps optimize power output, fuel efficiency, and emissions.

  • Closing the Injector

    • After the required amount of fuel has been delivered, the ECU stops the electrical signal, causing the solenoid to release the plunger and close the nozzle, stopping the fuel flow.

Understanding how a fuel injector works provides insight into its critical role in modern engines. By delivering precise amounts of fuel at the right times, fuel injectors help ensure efficient combustion, leading to better engine performance, improved fuel economy, and reduced emissions. Regular maintenance and timely replacement of faulty injectors are essential for keeping your vehicle running smoothly and efficiently. Stay informed about your vehicle’s fuel injection system to enjoy optimal driving performance and longevity.

With proper maintenance, it can last between 100,000 to 150,000 miles.
