    With these engines can you spray WD40 around the various parts as on a gas engine to find small vacuum, intake, ect leaks?

    A dyno will not show what injector is bad. A dyno is not a magic bullet that tells all, it will only confirm you have a problem and may help diagnose problem if the mechanic can see what its doing on the dyno.

    My Cummins ISM had the same symptoms a couple weeks back, it vibrated and missed bad under load but ran fine at steady throttle. No check engine light or any codes.

    The Cummins shop took about 20 minutes to diagnose a bad injector. If your shop cant identify which injector is bad, find a new mechanic.
