Uneven running and missing or knocking from a cylinder on a pre common rail system.
Let the engine tick over, crack a injector pipe, one at a time, until diesel comes out, do not let the engine stall, notice the tone of the engine, if it dies slightly that is normal, tighten and try the next one.
If there is no difference in the running of the engine when you loosen a nut that is your problem cylinder. It could be an injector or a cylinder problem.
Change the injector from that cylinder to another good cylinder and see if the trouble follows the injector or stays with the cylinder.
