PTE Injector Fitment ??

I need a bit of help / advice (constructive please). I have had a problem with my PTE injectors seating properly since day 1. I started by buying new FIC seals. That seemed to help, but still fitment is not perfect. I can get the fuel injectors to be leak free for a while (with a lot of tweaking), but after some driving I inevitably have an injector that leaks (usually the injector to the far right). Am I installing the injector improperly or do the PTEs not fit perfectly ?

I may just buy a new set of FICs and redo my maps / tune ....I am just shocked as I thought many use the PTEs without issue and the bodies are all the same dimension (maybe not ??).

My 880's went in without any issues I can remember. I used all new seals and such when installing.

I'm sure you are installing them properly. They can only go in one way really

+1. I believe the install was straightforward.

I did have a leak on one of them, and found the rubber o-ring was missing a chunk. Went to autozone and replaced it, and never had a problem since. You might want to inspect yours.
