Idling and running rough
#11
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the return line you're talking about goes back into the injector pump right? The hose is about 8" long right? How would I go about running a line to a container? Do I run one hose from the injector pump into a container and a hose from the metal line into the same container? For the time being, I will replace the 8" hose I'm talking about with clear silicone hose. Also, the original line was brittle/old and tore pretty easy, if it had a pinhole that was sucking air, could that explain my problem?
I also read something about looking for air bubbles in the return line with a clear hose, so I will check for that when I have another set of hands to help keep the truck running.

Well, air bubbles came through the return line when cranking and when I finished cranking, they recessed into the return lines. Can upload a video of them recessing and link it if you would like.

more information: I let the truck sit for a few minutes after cranking and idling. Checked the clear line and there is barely any fuel in the line (about 70% air). Is this a clear indication of a leak in an fuel line?

I'll work on getting all the lines clear of air so I can get a better reading on the return line. I figured while I was checking the return system, id replace all the return lines from injector to injector as well as on all three ends of the metal pipe. This way I can observe as much as possible.
