Sounds like a bad injector to me. DO you have access to a scan tool to do a contribution test?

If it will work on a 6.0 it will be an option on the menu under KOER(Key On Engine Running)

What 10-30? Make sure it's diesel oil! I use 15-40 and have used both synthetic and non. There is supposed to be some good 5w-40 synthetic diesel oil out now too. I wouldn't use 10-30 gas oil....

Sounds like a sticky injector to me too. Does it clear up once it's warmed up?

theres a feature that allows you to disable injectors 1 at a time. you will feel when a cylinder misfires.usually a lowcircuit code will pop up on KOER program.
