Injector Leakage

[brucemaddox]

If you saw my previous thread, you may have realized I'm a new first gen owner, and new to the cummins world all together.

looks as if its pissing fuel from around the injectors... Is this a common problem? Do the injectors have like a o-ring seal or something that needs to be replaced or are they lacking proper torque?

If your leaking fuel from around the injector near the hold down nut then tighten the nut. There are no o rings and the only seal is at the tip.

Did you fix your leak?

ther is actually a o ring type seal on the injectors. ther is that bronze looking washer seal at the tip yes, but on the top of the injector wher you tighten the hold down nut, ther is a seal that goes around it on the inside, At least ther is on my 93, as well as on my friends first gens, I just replaced all 6 on mine cause fuel was leaking from ther.
