You didnt say if it was a consistent miss or a sputter/intermitent miss but in either case its prob going to take some diesel experience to trouble shoot it , could just be an injector or ya could have a hole in a piston...gotta run compression check and have the injectors checked to even get an idea.... Unless its a steady miss in which case you can isolate it by loosening the fuel lines at the injectors (one at a time not all 3} and finding the one that makes no difference...pull that injector and swap it for one in a firing cylinder. Crank it back up and repeat the check...if the miss moved with the injector...BINGO!have it (or all 3) rebuilt. If the miss doesnt follow the injector I think Id break down and call a mechanic...Good Luck
