    Does my deuce sound right to you? Audio inside.

    With the engine running just loosen one injector pipe at a time, and you will immediately know which cylinders are not firing. At that time check if the ones you loosen are in fact squirting, or the fault lies elsewhere.

    air assist working?

    What vehicle is this? But generally, If you have an M series old truck, then, If it is not working you will not stop it. If it is working, you will be able to stop it, IF the brakes are serviced bled adjusted and functioning properly.

    Dot 3 or Dot 5 Brake fluid?

    14 trucks in our 'fleet' all any any of them drained on acquisition, and dot4 placed in all of them. All good so far. (And that's after 12-14 years!) They are all 'drained through' every two or three years.
