6.9 injector O-rings

What size are the O-rings for the injector return lines? Mine are leaking like a civ.

thanks,

The Oring may not be the only problem, over time the plastic caps distort and no amount of relacing Orings can fix it.

Visit.....these suppliers for kits.

Injector O-rings

There was a post here that I found that said the rings were common #9 types. I did get a Fuel bypass return kit when I replaced them. I replaced a bunch of stuff but the actual culprit was the glow plug seloniod. Runs like a champ now.

the caps become distorted (out of round) and dont hold their shape to seal the o ring fit. Go to an injection shop and get the fuel return line replacement kit (o rings, caps and return fuel line) and have at it.
