My dad's CRV has been leaking fuel out of one of the injectors. 2 weeks ago I removed, cleaned, and replaced all the O-rings on the injectors as I have done on many B-series engines before. For some reason the number 3 injector has continued leaking at the fuel rail. I removed the fuel rail again and inspected the O-ring for damage. I reseated it and put it all back together only to find that it is still seeping out. I can't see any damage to the rail. It only has about 120,000 miles so it seems too young for any major issues. Has anyone experienced anything like this before? I am supposed to be taking this car on my honeymoon in 5 days so any help is appreciated.

 

Try switching #3 with #4, after that if #4 leaks you more than likely need an injector, if #3 leaks you could be into it for a new rail. Are you lubeing (wd-40 etc.)the orings when you install them?

 

Great advice. No I haven't been lubing.

 

Don't WD-40 rubber o-rings. Get proper rubber friendly lube designed for O rings.

 

Note taken. Thanks.

 

I took the fuel rail off again today and replaced the O-ring with another new one on the #3 injector and switched it with the #4 injector. (Thanks FasterScooter for the idea) I put a bit of soap on the O-rings to make for an easy installation. The same injector is now leaking in the #4 spot. Looks like I need a new injector. Let me know if there is anyone in the Kingston, NY area that can get me one asap.
