I just wanted to share a few more final thoughts with my current experience before this thread goes off into the archives:
1- Rebuilt injectors are crap, only rusted nozzles I had were on the rebuilt injectors (they weren't all replaced at once for some reason or another), take the time to install new nozzles don't just trade them in on somebody's elses crap.
2- Diesel Purge actually does work, I ran diesel purge a little bit before and the insides of the injectors actually appeared quite clean.
3- Carb cleaner works better than lacquer thinner, mineral spirits doesn't work at all for this. If you let it soak for more than a day it'll start rusting and you'll only make more work for yourself.
4- Don't always drive like you're driving Ms. Daisy, diesels love being ran hard if you don't you'll have a carboned up motor like mine is at the moment. Never just redline it unloaded.
5- The injectors may get stuck, rather than using a huge breaker bar get out the impact wrench. My 25" breaker bar didn't want to loosen the 5th injector (I could have pulled harder but I was worried about snapping the injector) so instead I went with the 425ft/lb impact wrench to loosen it, didn't take much effort.
