Alright guys update time. tested by installing different injector no leak on that port. Good news for fuel rail, even worse for injector condition. I inspected the injector side by side with a known sealing/working one and noticed a very small "crush on the part that connects to the injector tip (right above small o-ring) so what I think was happening is that center area gave more play where the oring sits which prevented it to sealing properly. So I made a little spacer with washers (to give more distance the cap would push the injector down to help seat the injector) and re tighten with the cap on to make sure it was being pressed all the way down, then took the spacers off and reinstalled the cap. Shit sure enough that worked. Seemed that little imperfection was causing the injector o-ring to have a tad bit more play and not seal. Sure enough I got it to seal and its been 2 days, retested, still no leaks.

Krunk, good input man I appreciate it. Once this is tightened up my car will be back on the road. I do have plans to running my whole rail over there for injector service and rail cleanup. I am stoked, my car was up, then I maxed out my injectors with more power and came to this issue but finally making more progress again!


Thank you all for your input! Sorry if my explanation on my fix does not make sense, if anyone has questions lmk.
