Unhappy

well, i finally got the primary rail off...still chasing a fuel leak. looks like the fuel leaks into the little concave place under the pulsation damper.. can i plug one end of the rail with the damper on it and shoot compressed air into it to try and find a leak?? heres a pic of where it looks to have leaked... any help would be great! thanks, joshua

Think it could be the seals going between the engine block and the primary fuel rail?

Was the same plastic spacer between the housing and the fuel rail? I would swap all questionable seals with new ones, they are cheap, plus you might need them eventualy.



The clear line are for the oil injectors from the oil metering pump. (OMP)
