Leading injectors??? Trailing injectors???

Do you mean primary and secondary injectors?

In stock trim, injectors are all the same for both and interchangeable.

yes, i mean primary and secondary......these injectors are not stock. i know that they are aftermarket oversized injectors. i would love to ask the man who built the car, but he was killed in the wreck, so that is out of the question. is there any way i could test them or have them tested to tell them apart?

Anybody that services diesels can clean and flowtest injectors, and give you a report on their performance. You might as well get them cleaned since they're out.

Dont replace them, just send them to RC Engineering to be cleaned. At $24 per injector you'll find its much cheaper than replacing them.
