The short answer is similar: loosen the fuel fitting on the injector and
listen/watch the response WHILE the engine is running.

This assumes the long answer (do a compression check and make sure they're
all within 10% of each other then make sure the pre-glow system is working
throughout) has already been done.

Not the easiest, but the more you work on them, the more you get to
translate from gas experiences.
