Question Colorado Biodiesel - any impressions, thoughts, etc.?

Rather than hijack another thread (here) I will start this one:

I looked up Colorado BioDiesel's site and they do have a nice assortment of rebuilt Bosch injectors available. Has there been any concensus here about their products and/or their work? I read about their Vegject injectors for SVO/WVO and I would like to know if they would be a good addition to my WVO setup (GreaseCar/VegTherm) since I have already been looking to replace/rebuild my injectors. I have been considering Bosio's, too, but I just don't have a good reliable (or rea$onable - see here) shop here in Las Vegas to do the installation/calibration. If I could just buy a set of these and drop them in myself, I could probably save myself some money - IF they will work and are good!

Thanks!

If you do a search, you will find probably nothing but great comments on the quality of work. I'm not sure if he is still in operation due to some personal difficulties (He was a very active member of this forum.) However, it's easy enough to make a phone call and verify.

Tom is up and running, but I don't know how much injector work he is doing. Most of his time is going towards his diesel repair business, but definitely contact him as he is principled and takes pride in his work.

I have tried and tried to get in touch, but I get nothing whatsoever - I've emailed day after day, and called - leaving message after message, but nobody EVER responds. I'd like a set of his injectors for my 350SD, but if I cannot communicate with him what am I supposed to do???

If anyone knows him personally or professionally, please let him know that I would REALLY like a set of his injectors because I'm having no luck at all getting through to him.

Matt Jaye at Biofueled Performance centers

Matt is good friends with Tom Judd and has been working with him for the last few years. He will definately be able to get you in touch with him. I'm not sure if he is still doing the injector thing. Tom is an excellent mechanic and I would trust him to do any job. Him and Matt are the only people I let work on my Benz.
Call Matt's phone # is (303) 485-8168

I have only heard good things about his VegJect injectors. Keep trying he's worth the effort.

Hope this helps. Good Luck!

Thank you - I'll call this weekend or Monday b/c I could really use a new set of injectors.

Thanks again!
