I am trying to go through the different scenarios in my mind.
If the crankshaft went, it should start if it cranks as easy as it does? I have no whatsoever experience with trouble shooting prechambers/injectors, what failure symptoms are and what to look for. I know from tales that they can make all kinds of ungodly noises. I am going to pull the most obvious culprit and report back. Thanks guys. On 3/14/07, Jim Cathey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

However, if you've now got bubbling around the injectors you're going to end up pulling them anyway, so you may wish to do it through the injector holes. My $17 Harbor Freight diesel compression gauge will go either way. I used it on that 240D I sold, and it was very easy to do.
