Default Help, leaky fuel injector port!

Hi, I installed a fast 92 about six months ago and it has had an air leak ever since. I was finally able to get a hold of a smoke machine and it turns out to be one of the injectors, it has a very apparent leak. It has become so bad I can't drive the car. I replaced all of the o-rings and swapped injectors with no luck, it still leaks... Any ideas?

Is it in the injector or where the injector goes into the intake? If it is an injector is leaking I would just replace the injector or the whole set of 8.

he said he replaced all the o-rings on the injectors so wouldnt that fix a leaky injector issue if that was the prob? could it be a defaulty fast?

Hi, just to be more specific it's not an injector issue (they all work great) it's an injector port on the fast that is sucking air into the engine (which is why I changed the o-rings, seemed logical). I hope it's not a bad fast, it's ported and about 6 months old so I'm not sure if I can get it warrantied .
