I'd say you have identified your problem for sure.
Still baffled by the stuck injector.
I would be worried that now that O-rings and copper seal have been disturbed you will have leaks. Could end up with mixed fluids and low HPOP pressure.
I knew about the connector problem straight up but figured may as well check every thing while we were so far in. The # 8 is a worry and I want it checked before refit, then I will check the other bank. Thanks for all your help, really appreciate it.
1 thru 7 should be the same, although the solenoid colors can be different if they are not original. #8 is the "long lead" injector intended to quiet the cackle. You can swap in a regular one with no issues.
Finally got the # 8 out, lifted the rocker and it slipped straight up. Have carefully replaced all the O rings and cleaned the injectors up. Removed the glow plugs and the ends are a bit brown due to heat, should I give then a gentle wire brush treatment before they go back in? Also I would like to retest the plugs and injectors as they go back in, what's a simple way to test without special tools, use a test light for the plugs but not sure about injectors. Got the new gasket and harness readt to go as well. Aussie Bob
Found another problem the rocker at # 8 is damaged where the ball bearing sits in the bottom, will have to replace. Rod OK Housing rocker Housing for ball bearing shot

I got the airbags when I had a center console boat that set a little heavy on the front of the trailor. Leveled the truck up when towing. I learned early on though not to leave them aired up when not towing. Back end of the truck bounces badly.
