I'm about to tear into my 1999 contour Duratec v-6 intake maifold b/c I think I have a leaky injector. I have a couple questions for the experts...
1. I tried to look in the spark plug holes to see if there was any dripping fuel to identify the culprit fuel injector but I cant see a thing. Has anyone had luck with this and how? Does there have to be a ton of leaking fuel to see it?
2. I went to the autozone and picked up the upper and lower intake manifold gaskets plus some O-rings for the injectors. The O-rings I got appear to be two slightly different sizes... but I was expecting something else... I have read allot of talk about injector nose seals and was expecting something more like my mazda that has somewhat fat rubber bushing like seals on the fuel injector base instead of an o-ring. What does the contour have? I don't want to tear the car apart only to find I have the wrong stuff. Can someone suggest were to find these nose seals and perhaps a part number???
Thanks again,
Bryan
