Question Injector passing Oil

Any hints on a good way to check which injector is passing oil? Oil consumption is up and i think an o-ring on the injector is bad. Any hints appreciated.

If you're going to take the time to change the o-rings you might as well do them all. The installation kits run about $15 per injector. If one has failed chances are the others aren't that far behind. Just my $.02.

Ford just put injectors and a turbo on my 99 on the tail end of warrenty because of oil smoke on startup. To check which injectors where oiling they pulled the exaust manifolds and started it. Just look and you'll see which holes are smokeing. Sounded like a done up smallblock.

YEP! I get the same fuel milage with my F250 PSD as I did with my trusty old Ranger V-6! And lately I'm paying 30 cents a gallon less than gasoline too!
