That's exactly what I was referring to in my response in your other post... mine was installed correctly but just was defective out of the box. I had to return the unit to get a new diaphragm. It sucked. Fortunately the exchanged unit worked perfect. How long ago did you buy it? It could be under warranty from Holley. Also, I know Holley sells replacement diaphragms.

I had to file a little on my holley unit to clear the fuel rail.
If yours is butted up against the rail, it might leak. mine leaked the day after I installed it, and I filed it, jiggled it when installing the screws, retorqued the screws, and then it's been fine.

Thats what I think was the problem with mine. I took it apart and it was installed correctly. You could see where the fuel had leaked onto the top of the diaphragm where it was pushed up against the rail. I fixed it and hopefully it wont leak this time. I just bought it was last month from Jegs.

Wow, which injectors did you have that were too short?? I know nothing about injectors but I thought they would all interchange as long as the electrical plug is the same. I'm planning on installing 24lb injectors that came stock on a '98 Cobra. I hope they work.

Read my response to your other thread, about your regulator....not sure it covers all your problems, but may shed some light on a few...
Cheers,
Michael

These are not the ones from a Mustang, they're from an Expedition/Explorer and I did put the clip on the top. I looked at the blue top 24 lb Mustang injectors and they are longer like my originals.
