Afternoon!

Opened the bonnet the other day (always a bad mistake....) and I noticed that fuel was leaking from the injector as it goes into the block. I've looked at tightening it up, but it hasn't really shifted, and I didn't want to tighten any further incase I wreck it completely. So my question is, do they tighten up really well, and can they take a bit of stress (am I just being a jessy) - if they appear really tight, and still leak, do I replace it?

Cheers

is it your pipe to injector that is leaking or the injector as it goes into the cylinder head?
If its the injector to head seal it may require a new copper washer at the base of it. Or is it even the return feed pipes that are perrished and leaking?
