Fuel Rail Leak...
Friday, May 01, 2009 4:01 PM
Just got done my boost project (1999 2.4), went to turn the car on for the first time come to find out i have a small fuel leak coming from where the fuel line enters the fuel rail. Double checked and made sure it was tight and it was, just curious if anybodys knows if theres a o ring or some type of fitting in between the line and the rail, thanks guys.

Yes there's an o-ring/washer.

Nice, did you get it from the dealership or parts store?

Took it out of a psare rail. You could probably match one up at the parts store.

I got mine from the dealership. It seems to be a common o-ring that they have in stock. It is used in lots of applications for other GM cars. I checked a lot of the auto parts stores, and none had that exact size, either too big or too small. Whatever you do, don't get one from a hardware store. They are only rated for water and expand/deform when put into contact with gas,
