A word to the wise....

When replacing your injectors make sure you clean around the injectors holes. I have some air leaking around the injectors now and have to pull the fuel rail again because I didn't clean them up the first time (kinda rushed with the snow coming!). That is all.

also- make sure the old o-rings come out when you pull the injectors

and that the new ones go in properly!

LOL- I screwed it up when I was testing different injectors on the S/C kit I put together for my A4

Startled me when I saw fuel spraying out of the engine covers!!

K, guys what are some tips and tricks you can give me to get rid of the injector seal leaks?!

I just finished pulling the y pipe and the fuel rail again to clean the injector seats and seals. I put it all back together and there is still a small leak in injector 1 and 2 (smaller than before but still there). How the hell do I get rid of the air leaks?
