Sir Jacob the 2nd Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Hey guys, so tonight I went to start the mj and fuel starts pouring out between the rail and the regulator, my question is are there just seals inside the end of the rail that can be replaced or is that more likely a problem with the regulator itself?
schardein Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 I'm more familiar with the later HO setup, but I googled some pictures and looks like there is an o-ring where the regulator attaches to the rail.
Sir Jacob the 2nd Posted January 31, 2016 Author Posted January 31, 2016 That's what I was thinking but I wasn't quite sure
Sir Jacob the 2nd Posted January 31, 2016 Author Posted January 31, 2016 So quick update, the seal comes with the new regulator. So I have that ordered and should be running tomorrow morning. Thanks for your help
Marine1Texas Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 yes it is basically a rubber oring. A regulator that is faulty would cause extra pressure, but should not cause the oring to fail. Like any other synthetic rubber life span with gas and chemicals is not forever! However a good time to replace the oring and maybe the regulator. Make sure your orings on injectors are in good shape too. you can get them in a pack from most auto parts store!
Sir Jacob the 2nd Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 Yeah thanks! I replaced the regulator. I recently rebuild my engine so I bought some 4 port 5.0 mustang injectors as well
