If the air leakage around a link is excessive, check the injector overhead adjustment.

Refer to Procedure 003-004 in Section 3.

If air does

not leak around each injector tappet link, remove the injector. Refer to Procedure 006-026 in Section 6.

Once the injector is removed, air

must leak at the STC oil supply tube.

If air does

not
leak at the oil supply tube, check the oil transfer tube and oil supply tube for restriction at the problem cylinder.

Listen for large air leaks at joints between the STC oil manifold and transfer tubes, or transfer tubes and injectors. This will indicate a missing or cut o-ring, or leaking oil plumbing.

Replace the damaged part(s).
