we don'thave these in US, but scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge we have no specs to give you on fuel pressure. it can be leaking injectors.

It is a Ford bantam rocam engine, I have taken it to every machenic I know but the they don't know what is the problem, but the pressure is fine, how do I make sure it is indeed a leaking injector?

you would take initial pressure reading then check to see how much it is supposed to drop after key off and if it drops faster than that spec then go to the cylinder and try a differen injector or have a pro run injector cleaner through it first. that may cure the problem.
