Wet/Leaking Injector - CJ_Derv - 20-11-2012

Hi guys, i have recently cleaned engine bay and since have noticed that one injector nearest gearbox is wet (with diesel) and seemed to have a bubble from the injector nut when i opened bonnet the other day

Now can i just take out and nip up or do i need an replacement injector

Just took some piccies, i think i may take cheapest option and put another leak off pipe and make a new blank as this one doesnt look the best

And worst case anyone got 1 spare injector Smile

probably wont be a bust injector - just make sure that top union is tight, and the leak offs are intact - where they're braided they may appear fine, but may be leaking from a small crack inside.

Also, this? I assume you're referring to the union nut?
As above, yes, just 14mm? (iirc) just get it tight, but be careful, i know you're a monster and all so dont snap anything...
