    Fixed to many leaky used ones. I have had to replace multiple injectors in EPA 10's because of re-used tubes that leaked.

    Been lucky with those but have not done many. Reused tubes caused the need to replace injectors?

    Fuel leak eroded the tapered sealing seat on the injector. The fuel cuts the steel. You can see lines with magnifying glass.

    Thanks guys for all the help with this. You've put my mind at ease enough to finish my trip and try to fix it at home.

    Excuse me for for detouring the subject. We put a manual gauge on ours. It was fine. The sensor was bad and doing the same as yours. We were afraid it would blow the filter off or cause some other problem.

    Boxcar kid,

    That's what I wanted to hear. I'm afraid of the same issue. But now that I know it's just the sensor I'll relax.
