Injector line leaking

Raised the hood day before yesterday just checking oil and seen fuel around #1 injector. So i took a towel and dried the fuel off and started the engine it didnt leak real bad at first but after it set for about 10 min. it was all wet again. You can see where it has run down the side of the engine. The question i have is will it be the injector leaking or the line it self? Also are there seals under the nut on the injector line? Any response will help. Probably gonna just order an new line for this cylinder.


thanks Brent

I had the same thing on my 1996, and i replaced the injector line on cyl. #1 and it has been fine ever since. Just make sure that the line runs exactly like the original and nothing else puts any pressure on it.

Good luck.

No seals just a flared end.

Take your 19mm (or 3/4) and slightly loosen the line, then retorque it, clean the area and start it and check for leaks.
It'll probably reseal, best to try that before throwing money at a new line.
