I did not vacuum out the PCs. (what does PC stand for, by the way?) Very carboned-up it looked like down there. I could see tips of glow plugs, and then something else going accross the space in there. All carbon blackened. Valves have been adjusted 3 times, with the 3rd time making sure adjustment was a loose .1 and .3. I have no idea how to adjust injection timing. Guess I need to do some reading up on that, if that seems like a possibility.

I apologize for my whiney post above, I'm just whipped by this car, and by the angry woman I share a wedding ring with!
It amazes me that, considering the hampered functionality of 3 of my injectors prior to the rebuild, how little difference it made in the cars power.

*I guess if there is a silver lining here, it is that this is still easier than a couple of years ago when 'I' quit smoking. But I SAVED money doing that. half-hearted grin........
