Dave,
Is it possible that the injector also has the poppet stuck open and is blowing oil. Would that cuase enough hpop volume that it could overwhelm the lpop supple to the hpop es enough to drop pfezsure in the res to not registar.
Its hard to accept that the injector blew at the same time as the lpop.
Its not a external hpop leak such as a cracked or bloen hose as you would habe bathed the engine bay and if left has a fair chance of igniting.
Like Dave my first thought reading the first post about raw cuel whitr smoke and inj knock wsz blown or cracked nozzle. Mine did exactly that as have others. Stuck wide open I would assume is the same result. My only thought is its the inj that is cuasing the lpop psi drop as well. I know first hand it can do this with big oil and inj even with everything working.
I am assuming this is a stock engine as nothing wss mentioned about the setup and nothing in the sig line about the config.
If the oil is pouring of the inj the ipr would be max'd and at low rpm / idle hot the lpop is moving the lwast amount of oil at the lowest pressure. It would seem like the setting to have the heui side to be able to overwhelm the lpop system. That is my thought anyways.
