"The Kid" has been fixin on his diesel pickup at my place. He got it
running today but only on seven cylinders. he's got a programmer to read
codes and #3 injector is not operating. he thinks at least four hours work
to replace it.

that's time he hasn't got right now. He's working six or seven days a
week. He closes on his new home next week and has to move out of the condo
and have it ready for renters June 1.

Anyway, will it harm anything to drive it 50 miles to his new digs? Then
he can do an hour or so each evening.

Karl, on my 2000 Chevy Silverado (fuel injected) I had a bad spark plug.
Tried to diagnose the miss but was unable. The service personnel told me
that the cars computer shuts down the injector to any cylinder that is
misfiring. My only point here is that a non functioning injector could be
simply shut off by the computer and the problem might be something else.
