I have fuel/oil leaking at the injector going into the block.  Should I just try and tighten the injector? Looked at the schematics online, looks like there is a gasket. Should I replace that?  Anyone have experience working on the injectors?

Thanks
Mike

Mike : Do as Stu suggested as there are a couple of Mainsheet tech note articles written on changing injectors.

Also you might want to put some soapy water in the threaded well that accepts the injector and make sure it's that seat that's leaking!!
