Hey guys, well this morning I started to put it in... it sure to helps to have the right tools LOL so after a few trips to the store and getting everything in place, I started out the car (it starts - yaaaay) but the front fuel rail is leaking a looooot. Instructions say not to over tighten them so I tried not to, but still leaking... did anyone else experience that?? if so, did any of you used anything else to stop the leaking? or should i just keep playing with it til I get it right? I need help quick!!! Pleaaaase!!! thanks guys

Hey Bro,

I just ended up tightening the AN-16 a little more to solve the problem. See if that helps. :wink:

Good luck man.

Did you use the sealing washers?

yeah man, it did... i guess i just panic too quick but man, that gas was pouuuuuuring and i freaked out.. i had to put a few rags right under it to absorb the gas and as it leaked, i tighten it up a little more ... at 1st it seemed to leak a bit more but then it stopped. I turned the car on again and i didnt see any leak but i watched it for like 5 mins LOL anyway .. i took a bunch of pics so i'll try to write up a tutorial with pics since i was not able to find one. The instructions provided are good, but until today, i had no idea what the fuel rails were, etc, so i figured with pics it should be a whole lot easier .. and yeah, 30 mins my @$$, took me hooooours!!!! LOL (of course next time i do it, it should take me 30-60 mins LOL)

taking out for a test drive...!!!

An even, and greater quantity, fuel distribution from the fuel filter to the front and rear fuel rails.

How does one go about getting a upgraded fuel rail????

Ahh...so this would only benefit someone running more than the stock hp as the stock fuel rails provide adequate fuel for stock numbers?
