Yes, that's probably next after pulling the injector pump. I still don't have a diesel compression gage or any adapters. I've needed one quite a few times. I bought one a few years ago, much more expensive than a gas engine gage, and before I even used it once somebody stole the toolbox containing it out of the back of my truck. I suppose I could just make some kind of air hose adapter and do a low-pressure (100 psi) leakdown test to identify severe problems like a stuck valve or hole in a piston.
