Can you post some pix showing the DV wear? I beginning to think that is my issue as well, with new Monark nozzles and now worse performance (worse smoke, steady nailing from #3 cylinder). If a visual inspection can confirm the DV is the issue, I'll be more confident about pulling that DV, otherwise I'll be replacing DV's as a troubleshooting method. That's not terrible, I've got an IP to scavenge parts, but time is not on my side.
