Default mondeo diesel leakoff test

I am going to do a leak off test on my mondeo. its a 53plate 115ps. is it best to do it on tickover or disconnect the electrics to the injectors.

the correct way is to disconnect injectors and pressure regular, crank engine you should have over 1000bar in rail and less than 10cm in leak off tubes

If you then connect all the electrics back up. Run it for 1 minute and the diesel should just of about reached the bottles. Basiclly your looking to make sure there all the same. Any that are significantly high are dead.
