Hello everyone,
I am now in Roswell NM. Back the other day during my first leg of the trip, I pulled into a rest area when I noticed the rpm dropped to near 500rpm with ac on and a not so loud rap aand engine felt not running on all 5.
well I took alook and found one injector welled up between the threads on the body and felt that was the problem. I took it out when cold the next am and gave it aliitle more torqeand re installed.
it still gets welled up but does not drip.
The engine does run ok but with a slight combustion knock, so I call Brian Carlton for advise for a indy in tulsa ok. He gave me the address to a Mr. Buessy and I found him. He felt it was problem with #5 and sent me to Thompson diesel near down town Tulsa. I took all 5 inj out in the parking lot to have them tested. Well the were all ok with good spray pattern. The balance I thought was a bit of a spread but they did not think so, lowest was 136 bar high was 142. I did install new seal washers and was on my way. the engine sounds a little better but on ocassion at idle it does sound a little different and a slight knock. I now feel that some of my problems stem from a lean setting at idle since I have been trying to get the cyl balance set but i now relize that I should start with inj. set as close as possible before trying inj balance.
Thank you Brian for your help, I will give you a call in the near future,I will post more info when I can get to a computer when I get near Denver

Thanks
Peter
