Alright this is my ebay turbo set up with a few brand name parts. I got everything installed but I'm running into a fuel problem. So here's the problem, I unhooked the spark plug wires from the plugs to "prime the turbo". While doing so fuel sprays out of the banjo bolt/fuel rail. My injectors are not leaking at all.

So what could it be? Could this be caused by my injectors being wired wrong? I'm sure not how you can tell or that my fuel pump is high pressure?

Should have nothing to do pump size or wiring. On the top n bottom of the banjo fitting there is gonna be 1 brass crush-washer on each side, or jus 1 silver thin washer on each side (top n bottom). It sounds like you might have had 1 that might of fell out or something.

Check that first, if theres a washer on the top n a washer on the bottom then tighten down a lil harder, sometimes snug doesn't cut it.

yea I got them tightened very tight. I was just wondering if the injectors are not working would that cause a overload and cause it to burst out?

Also, if i wanted to get new washers for the banjo fitting where could pick those up?

No, the injectors have NOTHING to do with the banjo fitting. Any excess fuel thats not being used is returned thru the fuel pressure regulator & return line back to the tank

autozone sells copper crush washers. But in my years of hondas I haven't really experienced the stock washers not sealing (unless there's obvious damage of course) even when taking them on & off multiple times, I'm sure it happens tho, are you positive the washers r there n in the correct spots?

yea very thin washers about 1/8th inch wide one on the inside and one on the outside.

is one a smaller diameter? try taking the banjo completely off n reinstalling it, sometimes just things being shifted around will take care of it

I think I narrowed it down. Its leaking from the cap of the FPR... wtf.. how bizarre is that and how does that happen? and what do I do now? Nobody talks about having this problem while boosting there civic.

OMFG the o-ring was missing from the FPR... O_O
