Paccar MX-13 Injectors — EPA10, EPA13, EPA17 & EPA21 Covered
The Paccar MX-13 is the 12.9L heavy-duty engine that powers a huge share of the modern Kenworth and Peterbilt Class 8 fleet, and its fuel injectors are one of the most critical and most frequently replaced service items on the engine. HD Injectors’ remanufactured Paccar MX-13 injectors are rebuilt on genuine OEM cores and restored to factory flow specifications, giving fleets and owner-operators a cost-effective alternative to new OEM pricing. We stock MX-13 injectors for every major EPA emissions variant in North America including EPA10, EPA13, EPA17, and EPA21, so whether you’re running a 2011 T660 or a current-model T680, we have the right part number for your truck.
Find the Right MX-13 Injector by EPA Variant
MX-13 injectors are not cross-compatible across EPA emissions tiers. Part numbers, calibration specs, internal geometry, and ECM programming all differ between variants, so it’s critical to match the injector to your engine’s specific emissions certification. Here’s how the four MX-13 generations break down:
Paccar MX-13 EPA10 Injector (2010–2012)
EPA10 was the first emissions tier for the MX-13 in North America, introduced with SCR aftertreatment. These injectors fit 2010–2012 Kenworth T660, T680, T700, T800, W900, and Peterbilt 386, 387, 388, 389, 579, and 587 tractors. Shop Paccar MX-13 EPA10 injectors →
Paccar MX-13 EPA13 Injector (2013–2016)
EPA13 introduced updates to meet 2013 U.S. EPA greenhouse gas and fuel economy standards, with revisions to the fuel system and aftertreatment. EPA13 MX-13 injectors fit 2013–2016 Kenworth T680, T880, W900, and Peterbilt 579, 567, and 389 tractors. Shop Paccar MX-13 EPA13 injectors →
Paccar MX-13 EPA17 Injector (2017–2020)
EPA17 brought updated calibration, improved fuel economy, and revised aftertreatment hardware compared to EPA13. EPA17 injectors fit 2017–2020 Kenworth T680, T880, W990, and Peterbilt 579, 567, and 389 tractors. Shop Paccar MX-13 EPA17 injectors →
Paccar MX-13 EPA21 Injector (2021–Present)
EPA21 is the current-generation MX-13 configuration, delivering further fuel efficiency gains and emissions refinements on 2021 and newer trucks. EPA21 injectors fit current-production Kenworth T680, T880, W990, and Peterbilt 579, 567, and 389 tractors. Shop Paccar MX-13 EPA21 injectors →

Paccar MX-13 Injector Rebuild Process
Every MX-13 injector we ship, regardless of EPA variant, is fully disassembled, ultrasonically cleaned, and inspected for wear. Nozzles, springs, seals, and other high-wear components are replaced with OEM-spec parts. Each unit is then flow-tested across the full operating pressure range, high-pressure leak-tested, and calibration-verified before packaging. Calibration data ships with every injector so your technician can program the ECM correctly during installation.

MX-13 Injector FAQs
How do I know which EPA variant MX-13 injector I need?
The fastest way is to check your engine serial number and the emissions decal on the engine. HD Injectors stocks MX-13 injectors for EPA10 (2010–2012), EPA13 (2013–2016), EPA17 (2017–2020), and EPA21 (2021–present). If you’re unsure, submit our Make Sure It Fits form with your truck VIN and engine serial and we’ll confirm the correct variant and part number for you.
Are MX-13 injectors interchangeable across EPA10, EPA13, EPA17, and EPA21?
No. MX-13 injectors are not cross-compatible across EPA variants. Part numbers, internal components, and calibration specs differ between emissions tiers, and using the wrong injector will trigger fault codes and can cause performance and emissions compliance issues.
How many injectors does a Paccar MX-13 have?
Six main cylinder injectors, one per cylinder on the inline-six MX-13 platform.
What's the price of a remanufactured Paccar MX-13 injector?
Remanufactured MX-13 injectors from HD Injectors are priced well below new OEM across every EPA variant. Exact pricing varies by emissions tier and core availability, check the individual EPA variant product pages for current pricing and core charges.
Do Paccar MX-13 injectors require ECM programming during installation?
Yes. Every current-generation MX-13 injector carries calibration trim codes that must be programmed into the ECM using Paccar-approved diagnostic software during installation for correct cylinder balance and emissions performance.
Does offer core returns on MX-13 injectors?
Yes. Core charges are refundable when you return rebuildable MX-13 cores through our standard core return process, regardless of EPA variant.
