X Double Dot Did you find anything pulling the pre chambers?  I've got tools on the way to do the same myself but was curious how it worked for you
The prechambers were pretty dirty, and it seemed that one was not sealing completely. I did find one of the injectors was not operating correctly. I just had these injectors rebuilt by DBW LLC in Meridian Idaho and found one that had the needle sticking already after only 10 miles of driving. I dissembled the injector to find they never even lapped in any of the internal parts and the needle in the new nozzle was galled.

I called Pete at DBW LLC and asked if I could buy another nozzle and was told to send it back for repair. He provided a return form in which I had to pay almost $75.00 to have it sent back and checked. I had left the injector body loose so they could inspect it. When I received it back I checked it on my injector tester and it didn't pop off till 2500 psi. with a poor spray pattern. I went to take it a part and found it wasn't even torqued, and when I inspected it the same nozzle and needle was in it and it was worse then before. All they did was paint it and send it back.

I called Pete on it and he stated all you wanted me to do was clean and calibrate the injector and refused to do anything more, and claimed I must have gotten debris  in it. He then stated that they calibrate the injector to flow not pressure, so the pressure can vary. WTF What kind of a business is this.

Anyway I am repairing the injectors myself and I am waiting for the new delivery valves to arrive from the UK and will post an update then.
