Injector Buzz Test Question

Truck not been running right, seems low on power and has a slight miss at idle. was wondering if anyone can tell me how to do buzz test for injectors. heard that you needed a program for your lap top to do this. Does anyone know if this is correct and where to get it and cost!! Thanks

When things like that happen, I usually run a tank of B100, change the fuel filter, clean the housing, change the oil, fill up with the regular stuff and Diesel Kleen, and my truck is good to go.

Not sure how cold it is up in Ohio, but you should try running a tank of B100 and adding 2 bottles of Prolong to your oil. It can be found at Autozone and works wonders. It'll run you about $40 for two bottles, but it along with a tank of B100 fixed my injectors and at 247K they still buzz strong.
