Injector blocked ...

While the engine is running loosen the injectors one at a time (put a rag around it to deflect spray high presure Danger danger. ) if the engine note changes when you undo one it's a good one tighten it up again and move to the next if the engine note dosn't change then thats the bad one change it or clean it and it should be fine.
