Hey all,

I've been having a problem with one of my injectors/fuel rail. I did the 784 dodge neon upgrade and I also did new connectors while I was at it. Now, however, one of the injectors (5) is leaking profusely when I engage the fuel pump. I've removed the rail, replaced the ORing and everything. One thing I noticed is that injector 5 is the only one that resists movement when I try to move it around. It is extremely hard to press in, with or without lube... When it is in the manifold, I cannot rotate it like I can with the other injectors. I've examined the injector and it doesnt seem to be damaged. Any ideas?

Thanks

His new 4 link is legit.

I like ol rusty...nice guy when I met him.
I'd run anything of theirs...minus their track bar.
Of course rustys isn't my top choice..but if I ever needed cheap stuff it's definitely rustys over rough country

touche'.

I'm wondering how many people have RECENT first hand experience with Rusty's or RC? I hear a lot of "hating" on both companies, but when I talk to people in my local Jeep group, they love their RC lifts.

I know RC makes their springs too short and won't address the problem, but what else is the problem with RC? I know one guy got a 4.5 lift from them and called when his leafs were too short. RC sent out shackle relocation boxes for FREE. Another guy I know with the same lift had something break (can't remember which part) and RC sent the part out for free. Seems like their CS is top notch.
