Leaking injectors??

What part on the injectors actually cause them to leak? I think mine are leaking because i have gas pooling in my intake and after sitting overnight it stumbles BAD for a minute or so, when we put them on the O-rings were a little loose fitting(used 30lb svo) where can i get new O-rings?

Injectors usually leak at the o-ring. You may want to try your local autoparts store for some O-rings.

any parts store wil carry an oring kit. they are about 5 bucks.

but


you say it pools on the intake with the car off? I don;t see how that would happen with a bad o ring. usualy you will have a vacuum leak with bad o rings. I would take a look at where the gas is coming from. prime the key a few times and watch for it. a fuel pressure test will also tell you that it;s leaking down
