Fuel injector leakage on 2.2L 5S-FECDJr 06-04-2006, 08:58 AM If an injector is clogged, will it cause it to leak? Or would it just not fire on that cylinder? Cuz I just found one leaking, pretty badly. Or is it maybe just the O-ring leaking? It runs fine, but just had a strong fuel smell, and I finally found out why :banghead: Guess Im gonna hafta yank the intake off either way. Thanks for any help! marc780 06-06-2006, 02:49 AM If its leaking to the atmosphere, it may be just the seal O-ring you have to change. And the injector itself may be ok. Leaking at the seal doesn't necessarily indicate injector leakage. "Injector leakage" is another way of saying the spray pattern is incorrect and the injectors are dribbling fuel instead of spraying it. And this does indicate the injectors need to be to be cleaned or replaced. CDJr 06-06-2006, 02:36 PM It was just the O-ring, Marc, so I replaced all the gaskets on all four of em and it worked like a charm. Thank you for your help :wink: Soilent Green 03-17-2009, 08:16 PM Bumping this up. I have exactly the same problem, but please tell me I don't have to yank the intake out cause judging by the looks of it, it looked to me like it could be a 30 minute job... vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
