You mean pulling good injectors and replacing the crush washers twice, hoping none get stuck? I'll pass. Get an old, bad GP and use the threaded part to made a compression tester fitting. That is if you can't find a good tester with the right fitting. I've been meaning to do this for a while but I don't have a bad GP and no real reason to test the compression on my engine. Nor do I have a Diesel tester. It's in the works, though.
