Try a fuel filter first but sounds like timing is pretty low


Ready to be back in a truck

Just curious why would a fuel filter make 5 and 6 have no change but 1-4 change?

delivery valves I the injection pump. all the injectors should be flow matched and tested for pop and pressure. its not recommended to replace just individual injectors. The rings could be shot too. check the draft tube and engine openings for smoke and pressure. check the charge air system for oil leaks and shaft play and boost leaks. It sounds like the truck has not been well maintained. Prolly a combination of issues.
