injecter line leak

[MHorne]

The cylinder closest to the firewall looks to be leaking fuel out of the fitting. I can't see the fuel coming out, but the belly of my truck is saturated in fuel and the fitting on the engine is all gumed up. Has anyone delt with this before, its an 03 dually with 118,000 miles and a banks powerpack was put on at 90,000, thanks guys!

Several posts in the past about this line cracking and a UPDATED brace(like the other injectors)to prevent this in the future. Just hope the parts guy at your dealer can look up the brace. Maybe a MEMO ccame down from Chrysler on this.

DP's right, there were a couple threads recently about cracked injector lines, although I thought they were #5 rather than #6.

Anyway, the reasoning was that the clamp was loose on that line, allowing it to vibrate and stress crack over time.

When you put the new line on, be sure the clamp is plenty tight.

See the one that cracks does not have a brace or clamp. Brace is available seperate.
