Saxo Fuel Leak from connection to inject - Bri
My son's 1.4 Saxo Furio has developed a fuel leak from the connection of the fuel line to the injector rail. Is it easy to remove & replace the pipe and or the connector or does the fuel system have to be depressurised?
Thanks

What year? Is this the later plastic rail with the quick-release line connector? Why did it start leaking? Is it clicked fully home?

Hi,
Its a V reg year 2000, I found the leak yesterday and with the engine stopped I twisted & pushed the connector and after starting the engine the fuel no longer leaked but this morning I checked again and the leak reappeared after starting the engine. The injector rail appears to be plastic.
