Hello I need some advice.
I just fired up my 72 (1.7) today after a long winter's nap. I noticed fuel was leaking out of top of one of the injectors. 1) Is there a gasket that I can replace or do I need a new injector? 2) If I need a new injector how much should I expect to pay? 3) Where can I buy one? 4) How tough of a job is it to replace? Thanks! |

it could just be the inlet hose, if so and it's the crimped on style, you can remove the metal band and replace the hose with the proper fuel injection rated hose.
the proper bent hose is about $12 each, some people use regular FI hose and deal with it being not prebent just need a 10mm socket or wrench and a screwdriver to remove the injector(s) not that big of deal.... |
