Hi - is it definitely at the top of the injector? Have you had the injector out at all recently for any reason? :)
All the best, Pugwash

It might be worth taking it out and dropping it around to a local injector specialist to check it isn't blocked at the injector end. If for some reason it is, that'll manifest itself as diesel coming out of the top end :)
HTH, Pugwash

No worries dude :) Most injector specialists wont charge you just to check the injector - I've found that when I needed it done, a couple of packets of biscuits was warmly received though :)
