Under the hood
Its been a few months since i replaced the turbo, and checked things out. Removed the intake hose and no dustong going on. I want to remove the valve covers and fire truck up. What am i looking for, oil discharge is good, too much is bad or nothing is bad/good. Also, is it possible to disconnect the #8 cylinder injector to find source of ticking/bad injector, will it cause a problem doing that...thanks again

You can unplug an injector and let the motor run. It will have a miss and throw a CEL, but it will run fine, so yes you can disable #8. Keep in mind that the injector wiring carries a lot of voltage in it. Many people have unplugged the injectors one at a time with the engine running, but doing so carries a risk.
