Injector leaking on engine!

[scaryfast]

I have an injector that is leaking onto the engine. There is a fuel line to the injector and the fuel return line, both seem tight. Could the injector have come loose or the seal gone bad?

Doubt that a loose injector would cause a fuel leak, but I have seen a cracked injector line or two in my time, Just a possiblility for you to check on.

A Loose or not to spec injector will indeed cause a leak. the best way to tell if it is a loose injector is to wipe all excess fuel from around the injector, then start the engine and look for tiny air bubbles around the holddown nut. if you have air you have a leaking injector. if not look for a cracked or loose line.

When I bought my truck two where leaking right were they went into the head / Replace all the seals including the banjo seal . About an hour for a dealership to do... Don't worry its an easy fix and if you don't have the tools its cheap at a dealership

It's fixed, it was just needing an extra "grunt" on the main fuel fitting.
