Ernie,
Now that Spring has sprung, I'm more willing to get outside and work on stuff (not that we ever got a good winter out here). I cleaned off the injector pump and cranked the old girl up. It seems that the fuel is leaking from the right-hand connection. If you notice in the pictures I posted earlier, the "clamp" (for lack of a better term) that holds the right two outlets together is a couple of mms higher than the left one. I don't know what the function of those clamps are other than to keep the bottom connections from turning.
I assume that the top connections are standard compression fittings. Should I loosen the top fitting, tighten the bottom one, and then re-tighten the top one?" If that doesn't fix the problem, I guess I'm looking at replacing the injector line and maybe the fitting that goes into the pump.
Thanks,
Dodd
