I need to fix the leaking injectors on my truck, I was going to try and just pull one and clean it and reassemble it. But then I found 2 that are leaking on the backside of the motor also. SOOOO.... I’ve decided Im going to yank them all and clean everything. My question is, is there any parts that I should replace while I have it all apart? Any seals or bushings? If so... where can I get them?

Thanks
Dustin

Before you go there, try just losing and retighting them a coulple time before you go to the time of removeing all the lines of the inj.

EDIT with the eng off of course!

Replace the copper seals under the injectors, as well as the copper seals on the return line banjos. You don't want to have to tighten those little boogers down to seal a used washer.
