Check all your intake pluming for cracks or leaks....all your grounds too.

Intake is solid along with all the grounds. All appears well and tight. Fuel filter was disgusting but didn't fix problem. Problem almost seemed more pronounced after fuel filter and strainer install.

What do i check next?
 
Injectors were sent off to be rebuilt/balanced when I rebuilt the engine (less than 8k miles ago probably). Not sayin that something could have gotten thru the filter. That tank was nasty on the inside when I built the truck. I dropped the tank and cleaned it out pretty well. After that, I put new pump strainer and fuel filter on.
 
new filters got it to idle pretty well but still trying to drive it bogs down and miss fires.

this came out of the filter

anybody know of a way i can test the injector spray pattern? i've got the upper intake off.
 
pulled fuel rail out of truck and looked like it had mud flowing through it instead of fuel. Trying to get out what i can inside the input of the injectors.
 
tell me about it. wife is pissed cause its not functional as a daily but what can ya do? I'm really hoping this was my problem. You could see some visable junk in one of them but i'm calling a joint in wilmington tomorrow about having them cleaned.
 
fixed it. Called a guy that owns injectorrenew.com in wilmington, nc this morning and was super cool guy on the phone. Took them down there today and sat there and talked about everything under the sun and he flow tested them first. Cleaned them and then flow tested them again. I highly recommend him to anyone needing injectors done. I was in and out in about an hour and he gave me 20 bucks off. Now thats service.


He first put them in the machine to flow test them and one of them didn't fire. Turned the machine off and turned it back on and they all fired. I had cleaned them best i could with a little brush from a set of hair clippers and injector cleaner and pulled a bunch of crap out of them but he did the trick.
 
Awesome.
IIRC, there are O-rings that go around them that tend to dry out and crack, causing less than perfect pressure inside the rail. If possible, replace those rings before you put it back together.
Between this and everything else you've tweaked this thing should run like a top...
