, nope no codes.

So when u cracked the injector lines there wasent a cylinder that made no difference at all? (u know, u crack a line on a good firing cylinder it misses worse, then u crack a line on the bad one it makes no change in idle)

I would be suspisious of a bad IP if all 8 are in fact firing. U said u had the injectors tested, pop tested at a diesel shop im assuming? did u have them reset to factory specs?

I chased an air leak for over a year before i found it, my truck would loose prime after a few hours of setting. How does it start, after a night of setting?? How much fuel is in it? does it do it both full and at 1/8th tank??
