Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Fuel leak

[DLGonzo]

I'm getting just a tiny fuel leak that looks to be coming from between the fuel lines and connector tubes at a couple of injectors, My injectors have been changed 3 times now for various reason, and I think maybe it's time to replace the tubes. The leak isn't enough to cause any problems, just a little fuel around the lines.



Anyway, wheres a good place to get these online, and what's a fair price. I've heard around $100. Is that right?



To change them, do I need to loosen my injectors, or just replace the tubes?



Thanks for any resonse.

What is the serial number of your engine?..... if it is before 56462592 then you should have used the new updated connector tubes the first time you did the injectors. The originals were not designed to be re-installed with new injectors. If you didn't get the new connector tubes you can get them from Piers for about $85. They usually have them in stock and delivery was couple days for me.

It looks like I'm after that number, but I'll probably change them anyway. I don't know how gentle the dealer was the first two times they were removed, but I didn't have the special tool to remove them. I'm not known for my gentle touch.

Is the part number for the connector tubes 3936953? Talked to a local Cummins shop and they can order them, just want to make sure they are the right ones first.

I believe the Cummins part number is 3944833, unless there is a new number
