fuel injectors are leaking

Some of my fuel injectors are leaking. Does this mean new injectors, or is there o-rings I can replace?

It depends on where they're leaking. The T fittings for the return lines have O rings. Also the return lines can leak. If they're leaking into the cylinder then it could be time for new ones.

Sounds like the o-rings for the return lines are shot. Common problem and easy to fix. Do a search for 'return line' and you'll get all the info you need.
