If that doesn't work, I'll get some old injector lines and see how the nozzel is spraying. Since we're on a roll here, if these methods DON'T WORK, what next?
Is the fact that this problem originally happened over night a good thing or a bad thing?

Well with a potiential valve issue al lot of factors come into play...such as temprature....etc....If the injectors are spraying nice....and the valve clearances are in spec on that cylinder then I would get a compression and leakdown test done next......to see if its a burned valve or something worse.
