I have what you could call a HX mod hose with a ICP on the end of it.
The hose is long enough to reach the harness no matter where i tie
into the oil system. Works good for quick tests.

Yes, I do have an update. I pressurized each head with the grease gun filled with 15W40. One head would take several minutes to bleed down from 2500PSI. The other head could not be pumped above 1500 psi and would immediately bleed off. I have been gone but am back now and have the injector orings. I plan on doing all 4 while the valve cover is off although just one may be leaking. I think I got a bad set of orings as I redone the other side before.

When the other side was acting up the high pressure reservoir would always be low but it is staying up now. THat is what had be baffled about the whole deal.

Thanks for the help,
Kelly

It may well stay up when the oil is cold...
