Chasing fuel leak

Subject: Chasing fuel leak
by corvetteronw on 2013/8/29 2:08:13

Got my new O rings installed and no longer having leaks at any of the fuel injector rails (91 L98). BUT - cranked her up and am leaking fuel at the schraeder valve and at the O ring where the fuel outlet tube connects to the fuel pressure regulator.
I had the cap off of the schraeder valve and was able to stop that leak by putting the cap back on. But - the valve itself was loose. When I tightened it down it did not help. Is the proper replacement simply a new valve out of a tire stem? Guess I will head to NAPA after I cut the grass in the morning.
I have a bunch of spare O rings. I will take the fuel rail apart again and see if I have the correct-sized O ring for that particular orifice and try, try again.
