Hey Steve, well I probably should have said "guessing" that the leaky  
injectors caused OX code.  In my case, #7 was full of gas,#8 was full  
of gas and oil.  1-6 looked perfect, and it actually run's pretty  
good/idle's rough.  I cranked the motor over with those 2 plugs out,  
and both spit out a shot of gas.  I rotated the piston back up where  
I could see the top, and looked noticeably dryer....In the 1/2 hr or  
so that I checked #1-4, I looked back in, and it had filled back up.   
That was my low tech leaky injector test.....All I'm trying to  
determine is if the motor is worthy to save/ move/store, or make a  
coffee table out of it.  #8 say's "coffee table" to me, but need to  
replace my "loaned to someone,never returned" compression tester to  
see what that says. If anyone has 2 stock injectors laying around  
that I could borrow for a month or so, I'd be curious to throw them  
in and see how it runs.  Wanted to sort all this out before parting  
it....Tom
