The engine runs great, climbs well, etc. I do have an overheating issue. Changed out the thermostat and now have the rad in a shop to clean it out and do some repairs. I do have some oil in water(but it's not bubbling like before the HG's) which I think is from having shaped my own gaskets for...
I actually get better results w/ a hand held can. The kit in my truck hits the engine hard, much harder than if I'm using a can.
Maybe I'm just good w/ a can ;) But I have heard that my engine might not be turning over fast enough to use the kit. Have also thought of moving the either injector...
Thanks Gimpy, knowing that I could twist them helped loads. I didn't want to risk that having never looked at one out of the truck.

And, Do you need to take the injectors out? If so, how do you make them come loose?
Thanks all
Hey sorry this got left hanging.
It was sucking air right before the booster pump, bad hose. She was also hard to start a lot.
That's been replaced and loads of other little stuff, she even has new shocks. :)
