#1: What have I done wrong, injectors? Author: sheehan879, Location: HitchinPosted: Thu Jun 02, 2011 6:06 am ---- Hi all,
to cut a long story short I recently changed head gasket as I had the common oil leak. All was well for a week doing short journeys to work etc.. Went on a long run and after about an hour I could smell fuel, turned out an injector was leaking. I thought this was probably because I used universal o rings on the injector seals. Bought new ones from Peugeot (£30) fit them and set of back home. About 40 mins in the car cut out and now wont start.
I thought it was the injector seals again because when I put my hand round the back and put a little pressure on the injectors they leaked again. But would this stop the car from starting?
I changed the seals again taking care to fit them properly (with a little oil to ease them in) but it still wont start. Any Ideas? I have fuel in the rail but dont know if it is getting to the engine.
Its a 2001 206 1.4 manual by the way. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Jase

Don't, as you can cause damage.
