Its not installed correctly, you may have damaged the o ring seal on top.

My 1990 ford f150 is leaking gas out of one of the fuel injectors when I picked it up from getting a transmission put in what could be the problem?

Probably a failed injector O-ring that seals against leaking. Maybe it got jarred while replacing the transmission. Should be two O-rings per injector, one at top and one on bottom.

Hi 1989 celebrity 2.8 started to chug a little at first put new plugs ,wires, idle silinoid , new coil packs what next ?died in front of the house smells like lots of gas oh one plug looks like new maybe...

SOUND LIKE FAULTY FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR OR LEAKING FUEL INJECTORS.CHECK FOR LEAKING FUEL INJECTORS.HOOK FUEL PRESSURE TESTER TO TEST PORT WHICH IS THE SCRADER VALVE.WHEN YOU TURN IGNITION TO THE ON POSITION ENGINE OFF.FUEL PRESSURE ON FUEL PRESSURE GAUGE SHOULD HOLD STEADY 40 - 46 PSI. IF FUEL PRESSURE BLEEDS OFF SLOWLY YOU HAVE LEAKING CLOGGED DIRTY FUEL INJECTORS. COULD BE FAULTY CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. CODE SCAN CAR FIRST TO SEE WHAT FAULT CODE COMES UP BEFORE BUYING NEW PARTS.

05Ford f150 multiple misfire and dumping extra gas n cylinder

Sounds like you have a leaky fuel injector. The only way to fix that is to buy a new o ring that goes on the injector. Also, check your fuel pressure regulator to see if it is leaking. Pull the vacuum hose off of it, if there is gas in the line, the regulator is bad. Hope this helps, James Booth

STRONG GAS SMELL FROM 2005 CAVALIER INSIDE AND OUTSIDE WITH NO LEAKS AND GOOD GAS CAP

it might be you fuel regulator it will be leaking very little but enough to get that gas smell in the cab.  Becarful not to misjudge it for the 4 injector leaking cause gas will run down right on top of it.  It sits on top of your fuel rail and it has a vacum line and a fuel line going to it. It it is leaking it will more than likly be from the rolled metal round piece buy the vacum side.  Its an easy fix but it cost aroun $60.

Gas in the oil

first try the evapertator cansister valve is open and aloowing to much fuel in the engine, also the fuel injector could be leaking and pushing to much fuel intothe intake, this will wash out the cylinders and put gas in the oil, two things can case this a bad injector or a defective fuel regulator in the injector.

'95 Honda Civic EX will not start after cleaning fuel injectors

I would talk to who cleaned the injectors, I don't know if it something they did or not. It could be a stuck open injector. The exhaust would have a raw fuel odor if it was. What it sounds like is a blown headgasket, which can just happen. The exhaust would have a sweet smell to it. Usually starts as a small leak (between cyl. 2 & 3), the engine burns the coolant while driving which you don't see. Then the coolant level gradually drops to a point where the car overheats, which warps the head, causing a large leak. Now you see the coolant burning (white smoke).
Good luck Honda Al

Fuel injectors leak at fuel rail

Get some new O-rings, and this time put oil on them before you insert them into the fuel rail. The regulator is alright.The problem is that the o-rings can roll up, or twist when push em in dry. Had this problem once, easy fix, but was frustrating.
