Default fuel injector leak

my name is Darrien Walton and I have a fuel injector leak. I've changed all the o-rings and one of the caps on the tip of the fuel injector that protects the pressure needle, being that it was the only one cracked. I turned on the car and they weren't leaking anymore. A week later i turn it on and once again it forms a puddle on my air intake. I also wanted to know where I might be able to find a radiator fan. I can probably go to a junk yard but I don't want to. If you can let me know as soon as possible I would very much appreciate it, but I understand that you folks must have thousands of questions a day. Thank you

Welcome to the site. It looks like you might have an issue with the fuel rail fittings themselves keeping the O-Rings from sealing them up.

Thanks for the reply, what needs to be done to fix it being that the fuel rail bracket isn't adjustable. It's just a nut fitting inside a fixed whole. Am I able to actually move the bracket holding the fuel rail. Once again thanks for the reply.

Not sure, I haven't played with your particular fuel rail much.

On a TPI, the Fuel injectors held in with O-rings on both sides if I remember correctly. WE had some gunk in the inside of one of the fittings that, I am not sure how it got there, kept the O-Rings from sealing. Would eventually create a leak after enough times at Max Pressure (WOT)... once it had moved... it would leak. We remedied this by cleaning out the rail sealing areas with some alchol and Q-tips. Let them dry, put a slight bit of oil on the O-rings before replacing them and never had the problem again. Can't say this is for sure your issue, but just my experience with a similar problem.
