Alright so basically as the title says my fuel rail is leaking. I searched and could not find an answer to it besides but teflon tape on it...only problem with that is that if the fuel were to eat through the tape and it got into my injectors i would be fucked... so yeah should i just try to tighten it more or what? its coming out of the screw next to the FPR, the one you tighten with an alen wrench.

 

tighten it more!
add teflon tape to it first!

 

Check the o-ring first then tighten it down until it stops leaking.

 

Is fuel leaking or do you have a hissing sound? I recently got a hissing sound from around my aem fuel rail/fpr.

 

well ok heres the deal....it *was leaking. i just tightend it up and its not leaking gas any more but now occasionally it smells like gas when i have the heat on.

 

dont use teflon tape, use teflon paste it works a lot better and you cant get pieces of it in the fuel system.

 

Well before i even think about using the teflon im going to find out where its leaking from. Throw some soapy water on it and then ill determine if i need to use the teflon.

alright since it seems like a few people are sayin that I guess that may be my problem lol. im goin to check it out right now.

 

i would also say o-ring fuel smell is probably spilled fuel burning off the manifold

 

So yeah it wasn't the FPR o-ring im assuming now that its an injector o-ring. considering the fact that gas is basically spewing out of the middle right injector. so that means tonight after work i get to take off the rail and have fun with that in the cold. apparently patroleum jelly works wonders on that.
