[QUOTE="907DAVE, post: 565529, member: 672"] I would do a check on the injector/ sealing washers first. A easy way to test is to disconnect both fuel lines that feed the heads at the filter housing. Tie a balloon or latex glove around both and have an assistant crank the engine. The side that inflates the balloon is the problem bank. Once you have narrowed it down to a particular bank, remove the glow plugs one by one and re-test each time. When the balloon stops inflating you have found the problem cylinder. Remove that injector and if no visual problems are found its likely that the injector is bad. Oh, and be sure either disconnected the fuel pump if you plan on cranking the engine using the key - or just jump the starter relay and leave everything connected (key off). [/QUOTE]
