Default Leaky injectors.

Okay, so 2 of my 4 injectors are leaking. You can smell and see it on the IM.

First off, I'm not sure which side I need to replace, the fuel rail side or the engine side. I'm assuming the engine side.

Next off I'm wondering if the b16 injector seal ring works for the gsr motor.

And finally, wondering if a walbro fuel pump without a fpr mess up the seals?

Did you just re-install the injectors or messed with the injectors? If so you may want to take the fuel rail off and inspect the O-rings on the injectors that plug into the fuel rail. Sometimes they will be broken if you installed them incorrectly and subsequently start leaking...

Its happened to me one too many times... My money is on the o-rings. You can get replacements from Napa or get some used ones from another set.

Make sure to push the injectors into the fuel rail "SNUGGLY" before bolting the fuel rail and injectors into the manifold otherwise the pressure from tightening the bolts will actually cause the o-rings to rip of they are not in place.
