Injector problem

t3lancer2003 · Oct 4, 2009, 02:55 PM

I have a leaking injector and nobody in town that's open today has the o-ring replacements. Is there any other way to stop the leak temporarily? I can't miss school tomorrow because of this.

If I can replace the o rings with something I could find at home depot, that would work too.

You should be able to find o-rings at Home Depot you can use. Remember to lubricate the o-rings with a tiny bit of motor oil before seating the injectors into place. This will prevent leaking in the future. You might want to try just reseating the injectors into the rail. I had a leaking injector that was fixed by doing just this.

I replaced the o-rings that I got from checker, and not its leaking even more from an injector, i put oil on the o ring before I set it also.

Edit: I believe my problem is the injector insulator, They don't sit in there as well as they did, and I went around to the local auto parts stores and they didn't have any.
