just bought a 446 approx 5500hrs from internet auction local machine went to pick it up kinda know the shop foreman I asked was there any thing wrong with machine he said oh it's a little low on power and when you crank it move the hyd to make it start easy GREAT the auction said nothing about engine problems get it back to shop find that turbo is leaking oil on the cold side replaced turbo still not just right good bit of black smoke kinda lugging on rev up pulled valve covers adjusted valves and then find out about these pita mech.injectors ??? is are they as hard to adjust and set up as people claim and do we go head and put reman's in before we start my mechanic seem's to think it's got a fuel knock on the #1 cyld
