Fuel leak... need help
My del sols got a gas leak. I've changed the fuel rail and the muffler gasket and it still leaks. Its squirting from the fuel rail. Could it be the injectors? Some body help!!

Re: Fuel leak... need help (gangstacritta)
kinda curious what the muffler gasket has to do with your fuel leak...
so is the fuel coming out near one or all of the injectors? if you didn't put new injector o-rings in when you changed the rail, you need to go back and do that, but that could be your leak.
oh, and the crush washers are kinda sesitive to dirt. they are also sensitive to not being put back in. the banjo fitting (fuel supply line) should have a crush washer on both sides of it (between the bolt and the fitting and between the fitting and the rail.)

Me too.
You should be able see where the gas is coming from. Just look closely. And make sure you don't turn the engine over or try to start it with all this gas around.

Thanks guys will check again!
When I went to HONDA and ordered the washer that goes to the fuel rail, the parts man says thats what its called. So what is it called? Crush washer?
