Test proceedure is in the FSM. Download the online FSM from either site listed below. Test is in Sec. 2, p. 8. Download the entire FSM, you'll come to find it very handy.

Oops, you said GSLSE. FSM section 2, page 7 for 13B. Now the thread has both pages.

The manual check for a 12A is pretty straightforward. But for a 13B, the manual has no flow check procedure. Best I can tell I have to remove the intake plenum and then the oil injector. Put the plenum back on, start the car and measure. Then do the same thing again 3 more times for each injector, an all day procedure. Anybody come up with a better way?
