    Fuel Leak!

    My first attempt at starting my new 2.5 T1 resulted in a huge fuel leak. I haven't pinned it down but it's in the area between the 1-2 injectors, possibly the FPR.

    I have new injector o-rings all around, and a new o-ring on the FPR.

    Something that might be important is, I have a Walbro 255 from Turbosunleashed. Is that too much for the stock FPR to handle?

    How old are the injectors? I've had injectors themselves leak gas.

    Best guess is original.

    Make sure you didn't rip the O-rings while installing. If you don't lube with a little WBG, they can rip. Been there, done that.

    Make sure you have the o ring on the fitting that screws into the fuel pressure regulator. It is a metric fitting such as what comes on a power steering rack. If you don't have the ring on there you will get duched.

    Well, I pulled all the injectors one-by-one, they all looked fine, stuck them back in and tried again... no leak. One of the o-rings must have been a little ----eyed.

    Oh, and IT STARTED!
