multiple things with an 04 6.0l

How do I...
Figure out which injector is bad if its bad at all
Figure out if my glow plugs are bad and how to change them
Install the high idle mod along with the diagram
and whom should I buy my injectors and glow plugs from

My truck suffers from being hard to start and shutters at certain rpms and now that I have money coming to me I believe I can fix my truck... Is there anyone in Central Ky that has a way to figure out which injectors are bad short from taking it to the stealership?

easy to remove the egr valve. remove the two hold down bolts on either side, put a small screwdriver under the right side of the valve where the bolt goes and twist up on it while pulling the valve towards the screw driver. the twisting, pulling motion will allow it to come out straight without binding..........or a big pair of channel locks works good to if you're going to replace the valve.
