I think you answered your own question Mike. I don't see any signs in your signature that any injector work has been done and 200K miles is alot.

I'm with ya on the cold. We pulled the head off a cummins to do the headgasket and head studs in the middle of winter... SUCKED! lol

It sounds like you may have torn and o-ring on install, but I'm just gonna say... Every single time I change my fuel filter it is BLACK.. I change them every other oil change(6k miles), so that's around 2 months use. My o-rings might be bad, but it did that with stock injectors, stage 1's, and stage 2's the same. Not sure why.
