Injecto leaking

Post by RugbyPete »

Hi
I noticed a veggie oil smell under the bonnet, spotted when the car overheated (due to radiator leak) that the right injector was bubbling with veg oil and a small pool next to it.
Can these be tightened or is it new injector time??

Man, got so many thing wrong with this car....

Maybe it's just the excess heat? It might not be a problem once you're back to normal temperatures. Also, it's possible the oil leaked from the leak off pipe rather than the injector. Cheap and easy to replace.
