Injectors are easy, remove the steel line cap nuts, gently move the line away sufficient to remove the return lines/caps, then using a 1" socket "DO NOT BEND STEEL LINES" unscrew the injector. Remove the copper seal if left in the base of the bore.
If there is carbon in the bore.........
Place the cylinder at TDC. Clean the bore but do not dump carbon into the cylinders, best to remove the GP and if major amounts of carbon are found, then use a vacuum to clean/suck debris out through the injector or GP hole.
Injector........
Installation is reverse, "DO NOT DAMAGE THE NOZZLE TIPS" you can put "new kit orings" on the injectors but they come with some on already. To replace useing vaseline or??, roll the first oring into first groove, roll second over it to lower groove trying not to cut them. Put a new copper seal on the injector tip, I hold it in place with antisieze, antisieze the threads and barrel, torque to 35lbs, book says twice?. Install the new caps and line "sets" made up "by you" identical to removed sets, use more vaseline inside caps, press down on caps until they snap/pop into place. Connect the line caps torque is 22 ftlbs.
How to find TDC.....
The timing mark is found on a little plate that is on the front of the engine on the passenger side. The plate is mounted so it is very close to the main pulley on the lower front of the engine which is mounted on the vibration damper. On the side of the vibration damper, is a line, which when lined up with the line marked (0) on the plate, tells you that the #1 piston is at TDC(top dead center) You can see the line on the damper, and it points to the line on the plate with the (barely visible) 0 mark on it.You'll have to find a way to turn your engine over by hand. Make sure you remove the power wire to the injection pump(so the engine won't start)and then rotater the engine till you can line up the marks.
The engine rotates in a clockwise direction as seen from the front of the truck, and for every 1/4 turn of the engine(crank) each next piston will arrive at TDC. So, When the line on the vibration damper is at the 2 oclock position, cylinders 2 and 5 will be at tdc. When the mark is at the 5 oclock position, cylinders 7 and 6 will be at TDC, 8oclock has cylinders 3,8 at TDC, and back to 11oclock, 1 and 4 will be at TDC.
Cylinder numbers are assigned 1,3,5,7 on the left(passenger) bank from front of truck to back, and 2,4,6,8 on the driver's side, front to back. Firing order is 1,2,7,3,4,5,6,8.
