uk,
my injectors came loose so i tightened down the 8 mm bolt it cured it but still a little chuff under load so i tightened more while hot now ok is this ok or do i need to replace seals
 
New seals and a seat cleaner, it will start to leak again and the longer you leave it the harder it is to get injector out and clean the mess up.
 
thank you for your replys and advice the top round injectors is clean and i put soapy water round them before second tightening and no bubbles or pressure showing so i nipped them down a bit if it starts again i will do the necessary new seals ,washers and bolts thanks again by the way its 2.4 puma
 
As others have said, keep an eye on it, leaking injectors can let carbon build up around the injectors and jam them in. I have seen pictures of vans being lifted off the ground while trying to get stuck injectors out.
