be more descriptive

injector O rings? if they are leaking... did you use oil to lubricate them? If you just push them on dry it tears the edges and they spray fuel everywhere

Its your o-ring seals. You have to probably get new ones. Home depot has them in the water piping sectoin, they are like .30 each. Better than paying 5.00+ for 4 of them. Remember to oil them before installing, they deterioate really easily if you dont.

yep. o-ring seals. a buddy of mine installed injectors and his o-rings werent properly installed. long story short, it caused fuel to shoot to his manifold, catch on fire then.... byebyebye integra because it burned down.
