injector o-rings

ok- I'm a little scared of hydrolock but I'll get over it. I have some great info. thanks to this site. couple quick questions.
could it be time for injectors?

I've got 2 O-ring kits $20/ea. -dealer no more in stock. should I just buy a full set on E-bay and limp around till I can do 'em all?

I am thinking of doing #8 and #5 (front and back pass side?) then 6 and 7 another day then drivers side

I know a guy that said he could "scan the injectors" what does this mean?

Is there a way to test for a bad injector o-ring. I've just got an ohmeter. I've got some symptoms like white blue smoke at high rpm. loss of power especially after a warm start. tends to clear up a little if I stop and restart the engine


The passenger side has a knock which sounds a little more pronounced lately
'96 F350 5 sp. 210,000 mi clean oil, clean IPR, full HPOP, clean fuel filter, dropped and cleaned fuel tank cleaned FPR screen. switched 10K mod. running B20 BIO
I've run outa things to clean and unplug;-)

Is the oil galley plug under the rocker cover?

do I need to drain out the fuel rail too?
is that under the cover too?
