General. Fuel injector or fuel line that is
loose, damaged, or defective will effect diesel engine
operation. When it is suspected that a fuel injector is
defective, the defective injector can be isolated by the
following process of elimination:
(1) Loosen fuel line coupling nut at fuel
injector while engine is idling, and observe engine
performance.
(2) If idling speed slows down, the injector
is working.
(3) If there is no noticeable difference in
engine speed, that injector is defective. Repeat on
remaining five injectors. Replace a defective injector or
damaged fuel line.
