Does anyone have an opinion....on what would be causing a fuel injector to be leaking
intermittently? Is that symptomatic of a complete failure about to happen? I have had them start leaking, and need to be replaced, but never a start and stop. I noticed it dripping the last time I came back from a ride around town, and started it up today, to verify if that is was #3 or #4, and it is not leaking now. Even after bringing the engine up to temp., nothing? Head scratcher. Thought I would ask the question before I start swapping things out. It is on a 1.7lt car, and the fuel lines are in good shape. Thanks! |

Mr injector
About $17 an injector + ship. He only charges for the ones that work after cleaning. Flow chart before and after. They come back in a couple days with new seals and hose and look like new. I use a small usps priority box. He’s done at least 100-150 injectors for me. |
