Trucks Making Oil!!! Think Its an Injector Leak!!!
I've never seen anything above 20 psi since I've owned it. Think for the price to get the injectors tested and the time down to send them off and wait, I'll just buy new and get them swapped. Wife's not goin to enjoy only one car for the next couple weeks, lol

That's kinda what I figured on the test. It's definitely lighter around the outside of the spot I put on there. 3rd set? Change your mind or have you had problems with them? I really didn't think I'd ever have an issue with this set, but as I look back I got the aftermarket bodies and not the new bodies. Not sure if that hold true or not

How does the paper towel test work? I changed the oil last night before I drove the 20 miles home and still have it sittin here. Also I checked the oil this am and it's over full. Not surprised there, but was a little by the amount over. There's no fluid on the manifold or anything that would make me think it was the crossover tubes. It turns over crazy fast like there's not a drop of fuel in it. Not sure there's anyone around here to can pop test the injectors. Tryin to figure out if it's worth the labor to pay someone to test them or just buy new and get it done. These injectors are around 5 years old and probably has somewhere in the 60k like range. Do you guys recommend new tubes with new injectors? Looking at goin with DAP new bodies.

Trucks Making Oil!!! Think Its an Injector Leak!!!
So here recently my trucks been loosing prime/fuel pressure after its been shut off and sits for a few hours, normally overnight. The other day it did in the 4 hours from when I got to work and left for lunch. This really bothered me, so after lunch I crawled all over her and checked all fittings to the fuel system I could get to. With no luck of something loose, I was not happy and dreading it bein internal. Pulled the dipstick and with 2k on this oil change, I was maybe a qt over full. This tells me that Ive got an injector thats leaking down after shut off. Truck runs and drives fine, no extra smoke at idle or drive, nor does it run any hotter. So finally to my question. Is there a way to test the injectors without pulling them out and sending them off? Can you do a leak down test somehow through the injector tubes? Also the injectors at 100hp, and if they have to be replaced as a set Im leaning on going to a 125 or 150 hp.
