Thread: injector seals

    Default injector seals

    I'm going to pull my injectors apart and seal them up with some gasket gue around the normal seals.

    Where the bottom of the injector sits on the manifold is no worries as this is atmospheric pressure - same as the pressures experienced by gue on manifold to block interface.

    Where the injectors sit in the injector holder - is this under fuel pressure or does the c clip take some of the pressure???? Is this normally a dry fit?? If the o seals are under pressure and exposed to fuel - Is there a sealant that was meant for fuel and a little bit of pressure? Will normal gasket gue work for a few weeks or months or years.

    Relpy if you have done this sort of work - help appreciated

    Just replace the o rings, & hoses, DONT under ant circumstances use any sort of "gasket glue" on them, they will seal correctly if you replace the seals properly, if youre not confident get it done professionally, id hate you to have a fuel leak & fire under the bonnet
