I did pretty much exactly what you did but only with one delivery valve on my OM603. I could not get the torque wrench to fit under the intake manifold, and I didn't have the time to R&R the manifold, so I did my best. I've got a bad knock like your engine at idle, it goes away completely once the RPM climbs over 1000.

I'll grab a 3/8" to 1/2" adapter today and I should then be able to get my smaller torque wrench under there...Removing the manifold is a PITA (been there, and didn't know about delivery valves at the time..)
I ordered the 7.5mm braided fuel line, so hopefully that will solve my air in the injection pump issues...which may also solve the nailing. We shall see.
