Fuel Rail Inlet Pipe O Ring

[G.I.Ceo]

Well I got my car all back together and when I go to engage the fuel pump my fuel rail starts shooting fuel everywhere. I guess you need a o ring for the inlet tube that goes into the rail. Does anyone know where I can get this o ring? I had this happen to me once before when I did other work but I got it to work without a o ring somehow.

gotta buy the box of orings for the fuel injectors. It comes with those. there should be 2.

If you buy a random assortment pack of fuel safe o rings at the parts store there is always one in there that works. The first time this happened to me I went to the dealer and paid $9 for the one o ring. That whole pack costs $2. I have done that about 5 times now.

Well I'm glad that I'm not the only one who has done this. I should have known better from they last time I did this. Well I will tell there will not be a third time that I makes this mistake. I will run to a parts store tomorrow and grab that assortment pack of o rings and get this finished.

be sure that the Oring(s) didn't say in the fuel rail. that would cause even more problems.

Are you referring to the brown one that always goes flying when you take it apart, or the black one on the other side?

Well I got a o ring for it and it seems to work. I have had no fuel coming from the rail at all but I have not fired it up to run it yet. I am honestly a little nervous because of all the work and upgrading I did and it was the first time I went that in depth.
