fuel leak...from the cold?

[sevenslats]

Would there be any reason for a leak to appear because of the cold?
Whilst my ZJ was upplugged all night, and I tried to jumpstart it this morning, I smelled fuel. ppoked my head under the hood, and there's a puddle of gas on the intake manifold. looks to have leaked out around the injectors???

Yeah the YJ was doing that for a bit. The hose is warn and needs to be replaced sounds like.

What about the injector o-rings that were soysauce's problems?

[Jackrabbit]

Yes, O rings srink up in the cold, especially in the extreme CCCold!!!

I drove it all day today. worked fine. Of course, it was parked inside overnight, and I plugged it in properly at work.

Sounds like you have the problem that i had/have. My injectors were leaking at the fuel rail and dripping on the intake manifold. I replaced the o-rings and it looks they are doing it again. It seems that everyone is right. It is the cold. I thought the o-rings where bad but like i said they are replaced and they still leak a little. I got 13 0-rings (12 for the injectors and 1 for the fuel pressure regulater) at genes for about 20$. Let me know if you need any help. They are not fun to do but simple enough

These injectors can leak from the o-rings and the body of the injectors themselves. It would not suprise me if you had injectors leaking from the body if they are still wet. I didn't see any indication when it was in the shop, but you had it torn apart before I really looked into them. You can usually tell as the body is wet halfway down but not at the very top by the o-ring. Before replacing them let me know, you should try lindertech.com to get the set. Cheap, flow tested, and ready to go.
