Default Injector O-ring kits

My injectors are leaking around the intake manifold, does the Autozone O-ring kit for $11.99 include all I need to do all 4 or is it for just one injector?

I'm assuming the O-rings are the problem, I have fuel deposits and a strong fuel odor in the car once its warm.

I guess it is vehicle speciffic the autozone part? If so that should be for all 4. I would agree you are on the right path.

i recently had the same issue because i put the injector in wrong and damaged the little ring, what part is leaking? for mine it was the part that goes into the fuelrail the o ring thats wrapped on the injector.. if you get the autozone one i believe it was brown colored its a set for all rings i believe its a 12 piece replacement,,, if you have a beater and can wait a few u can order a single one only from a honda dealer...

that is 11.99 for each injector. advance has them for 10.88.



i just went to the harware store and got the ones for the top of the injector, but take one with you cause they are alot that look like it but won't fit inside the fuel rail.


oh yea here is the link

If u pick them up from a hardware store make sure they can handle gasoline.

Went and looked a bit more closely at them today, if I just applied pressure to them or twisted them a bit w/ the engine off, fuel leaks out.

This probably isn't safe so I guess its time to do all 4 injectors. Its leaking at the top of the injector, near the rail.

have you recently changed your injectors or pulled them off the rail?? if so its most likely that small one on the injector, on the link below #28

Never had them off the car, never even messed w/ them, but the fuel smell is STRONG when in the car. Its either #3 or #28, the #3 part is larger, like maybe 1/4-3/8" or so, and its partially visible. The fuel just leaks out from around there somewhere.

I went and looked at the kits today, for $8 it comes w/ all those grommets and o-rings, for one injector. I'll call the Honda Stealer on monday and see what they want for them. All 4 leak if I put any pressure on it.

I wonder if thats responsible for my last tank of 15.7 mpg?

All 4 leaks?? usually if its a o ring problem they go one at a time or maybe 2 but all 4 seems kind of strange, try to tighten the 3 screws #25 on the chart. NOT too tight though i just snapped one of those suckers the other day and they cost like 6 bucks for each, once u feel resistance stop.

and yea that could be the problem to your fuel loss, but it can also be other stuff also..

you need new injectors. It is not a replaceable seal problem. It is a common problem on 3rd gens. They will leak from the middle of the injector, not the connection between the rail or the intake manifold.
