How to test a fuel injector for flow problems (GM)

Описание: This vehicle has an intermittent misfire that we are trying to locate. Here we will be focusing on the injectors, making sure they do not have any flow problems (restrictions or leaks)
An external timer tool will be used to fire the injectors at exact intervals while watching fuel pressure drops on a pressure gauge.
Since we cannot get to the injector connectors directly, we will be using a main bulk connector to access the injector control wires. This same procedure can be applied to many different systems.

Engine Performance Diagnostics chapter 18 page 26

Symptoms
intermittent misfire
check engine light (P0300 fault code)

Fix
I don't remember but it wasn't the injectors :)

Tests shown
injector balance test using an external timer tool

Tools used
fuel pressure gauge/kit
electronic fuel injector tester
test light (LED or incandescent)
jumper wires
back-probing tools
