If I use my Predator to look at Fuel Rail Pressure and Balancing Rate for each of the Cyls what numbers should I see? What numbers would indicate problems with injectors? Are there other functions that would be good to monitor and if so what are typical numbers that should be seen? Thanks for any and all input. It is great to have such a wealth of knowledge available and for you guys to be willing to share that information with those of us that have inquiring minds!!
