I've got 2 injectors I thought were bad maybe it's the rod bent causing the balance rate to be off. 6 are perfect and 2 are off

Wouldn't it idle funny if the rods were bent, or have blow by? How do I do a compression check?

Buy a compression tester from Harbor Freight, there like 35 bucks. Pull glow plugs and check. Do you have a puff of white smoke on start up? Sometimes take longer to start then usual?.

Funks was a lbz.. Mine is lly.. I had 40 overs and an s363... I had no signs of any bent rods.. It started fine and ran clean.. But when we pulled the heads off for the build, 7 out if 8 were about an 1/8" to 1/4" lower than the tallest rod.. Safety feature in my opinion.. U keep bashing with big fuel I have a feelin ur gonna need to patch your block

I did a compression test the day before my #8 rod broke and all were within 10#'s of each other and around 400#'s. Needless to say the rod was bent. But it went a ton of high 7.2x's and low 7.3x's. Mine was hazing blue at idle pretty bad when it was cold
