changed 3 injectors

Hello my 2000 f350 6 speed 6637 filter 4 inch ex. turbo back diablo tuner hutch mod shimmed fpr. had a miss when started that would last until warm. On the cct test I had cylinder 8 2 and 3 that always read 3-5% I bought 4 used ad injectors off flebay for 200 bucks I installed them today went perty easy a lil over 2 hours to do. noticed a great improvement i ran it for under a minute before i tore it down and it was missing badly after changing them it fired right up and didnt miss a beat seems to have more power too deffinitley a smoother idle. The true test will be tomorrow am see how much better it starts. I think the injectors were stock but who knows. it does have 275k miles it didnt have the LL in #8 spot. I was going to put a regular one in anyways so I know that one had been changed. Thanks for the write ups for making this a easy swap.

Good Job Chris, update us tomorrow and let us know how the sart up goes.
It may go slow as you have introduced air into the HPO system, but be patient it will work out.
