Gr8ride,
You are correct about the Hot Shot's Secret. It was designed for the HUI. I am sorry it took so long to get back to you. I was having loggin difficulties. If it is an obstruction problem there is a product from www.lubricationspecialties.com I would recommend. 400 protect-o-lube. I don't know for sure if it will do the trick but if anything would that would be it. If you want to try it email me and I will break a case and just send you one quart.

Thanks,
Chris

I ran the sea foam through it and no change.
I got tired of hearing it knock, so I put a new set of injectors in it and guess what the knock is still there What do I do next?



Chris Gabe Lube, thanks for the offer but I will pass.

when you replaced the injectors, did you check the injector port for carbon?.........have you check the glow plugs on those cylinders?

The tips of the injectors on the passenger bank had a little carbon build up and the ports looked pretty clean. Another thing I noticed the injectors on the passenger bank were oily all the way up to the threads while the driver's side were all completely dry with just a little rust, not sure what to make of that?
I haven't checked the glow plugs, the truck starts just fine you barely have to touch the key.
Something else I should mention, on the old injectors the truck did not have a very smooth idle, but after replacing them with bosch BB code injectors it idles really smooth now.
