Right, during some inspections yesterday I was able to determine that the leak(s), as far as I can tell, are between the aluminum return washers and the return pipe *and* between the return pipe and the nut holding it onto the injector.

My current hypothesis is that my fuel return pipe is bent and is not sitting flush on the injector return gaskets. This is corroborated by the difficulty I had in prying the damned thing off when I was inspecting the injectors this weekend.


I'm wondering if I can apply a little bit of sealant around the nuts or if I should just try to source a new fuel return pipe :-/
