Okay, I changed fuel rails, inspected all the orings, made sure they were OEM size, and they are. I used vasaline and such to help the injectors seat. However, they still wont.
Both centre injectors on each rail have blow by. When i rev it up, i can clearly see fuel spraying up around the oring and onto the injector(coming out of the head). It does not leak as bad as before, however this causes the car not to idle worth a ****.
What gives????
I know im doing everything correctly all the retainers are insalled correctly...
WTF

I guess anything is possible, but this time around i inspected them and made sure they were really cleaned out.

These are the 42# injectors correct?
Did you try the stockers to see if the issue is there?

Can you push down on each individual injector to seat them. Don't just rely on pushing in on the ends.

Ive got some messin around to do now. Im going to compare the orings once again to make damn sure they are the same as stock. Just those two centre injectors that arent going in enough to seal.
These are the 42.5s, yes. If I have to try the stock injectors I will just to rule out other things.
