leaking injectors

[matress]

hey guys,

it seems like my new FIC injectors are leaking a bit... Ive discovered little puddles of fuel sitting on the inlet manifold behind the injectors.

Has anyone else experienced this? How have you overcome it?

When the leak is fixed, should it have an affect on my tune with the aftermarket ecu, no o2 sensor, afm, etc.?

Thanks!

Mat

isnt that just your O-rings?

because if the fuel is on the manifold, doesnt that mean its leaking from where the fuel rail connects to the injectors?

yer taco is right.. sounds like an o-ring however....

FIC/ROCHSTERS etc.. are all DRIBBLERS under high boost/load they tend to leak...

i told ya that already lets hope leaky injector syndrome didnt get to ya car...

I just ordered a new set of o-rings

It looks like maybe the black o-ring that sits between the injector and the head could be the culprit. Apparently they're not supposed to be rock hard :?

LP's have the best quality audio dude, just that the needle skips everytime I you over a bump :lol:
