Finally got my truck goin again but my #1 injector line is leaking like a sift. Is there an o-ring that may be in bad shape on top of the injector or did I crack the flared end on the metal line? If thats the case does ayone know a good place to get replacements?
BTW its a 1989 Cummins

No o-ring in the top, it's metal to metal. Just loosen it a little and try to tighten it again. They don't need to be super tight, just snug. If it keeps leaking, pull it and have a look. If it's rusty looking in the top of the injector, it can be cleaned carefully with some emery and a blast of brake clean to blow it out. Same with the line. If the line looks cracked or deformed, time for a new one.
You can get a line at the case/ih dealer if that's closer than a cummins dealer. Say it's for a 621 loader, it's the same thing.
