[QUOTE="KPSquared, post: 337449, member: 366"] Ok, just to be clear on what has all gone down so far. . . I pulled all the glow plugs. I had a hard time getting a socket on the 3rd one from the font on the drivers side so I pulled that injector and let all the oil drain into the cylinder. I cranked the truck over and let it spray oil/fuel out of that hole that it ran into (with the valve cover over it to catch the spray) I then watched as we cranked it over and there was a ton of spray still coming out of that hole. So, I figured it might be that injector. In order to check this, I swapped it with the closest one to the front on the drivers side. Now that hole sprays a huge mist and the 3rd hole is a lot less (like it's getting less as I crank it). So, I'm thinking that injector is toast but on visual inspection, it showed no obvious signs of damage. So, I don't think there is still oil/fuel left in the cylinder from when I pulled the injectors and there is a lot of fuel still spraying out of the one glow plug hole. So there we go. . . that's where I'm at right now. Do you think that it's an injector or do I need to do more to confirm? [/QUOTE]
