Just got the truck back for the steering bearing fix and asked the service writer to leave a print-out of the injector balancing rates because I was hearing what sounded like a rocker arm rattle while cruising and under load. When he called and told me the truck was ready and all the balancing rates looked "fine, better than fine..." I was satisfied and picked up the truck and headed to work. When I finally looked at the readout, my number 1 was at .9mm (cubed) and no.2 was at .5mm. The rest were at .4mm and -.4mm across the board. From what I remember, the .4mm and -.4mm are the tolerance levels, correct? And if this is the case, do I just say, "Hey, change these injectors!" or what? Thanks

You list .4 as your reading, this is fine. 4.0 is limit

Thanks, fortunately I'm only dislexic when trying to remember where the decimal point goes.
