It sound like it to me as well Joey. DId you suck the oil out of the cylinders before you installed the new injectors? You can also remove the GP and turn it over, cover with rags because if there is any it will shoot everywhere.

Did you have your mechanic install them or did you? Call me and I will walk you through it.

Jim,
nope didnt suck the oil out....didnt think about it.....new plan, remove glow plugs,set valve covers back on,turn over by hand a few rounds,then turn over with switch....
Clay,
Thanks for the call.....I did it, had a friend come over friday and he talked me into it...started friday and finished today (so i thought)...no big deal...2nd time is always faster...LOL....
one question though....Pull glow plugs,turn over,....Should I change the oil??? it only has 1500 miles on fresh oil.....
