Thanks for the post Redzone,

Are injectors included in the ECI, and are they definitely not leaking?

Replaced 2 of these units already, so just want to make sure it's not another leaker.. As my current injectors have ceased.

thanks again mate, let me know.

Vulpes, hindsight is a great thing! ;D

To be honest though she's been VERY good to me... just this fuel leak i can't seem to ever get rid of! Never had it this bad though (i've replaced the unit & injectors before), fuel is gushing out of the unit with heaps of pressure! Not sure what else it could be...? It won't even start now...

Redzone, PM sent. thanks again.

I know what you mean Marc, man I wish I had kept some of the cars I sold and sold some of the cars I kept :roll:
Perhaps my biggest regret is selling my Westfield Lotus 7. Wow now that was a car. Still when I drive my staz and hear that exhaust note AND I'm warm and dry well that's something I suppose. Still for the cost of what my Starion has cost me I could have kept the westfield even though I sold it at the time becaus ei needed the money. As you say, hindsight is great thing.
Good luck with the sale.

Received my replacement fuel injection unit from Redzone today. Excellent packaging and received quickly.. If this was eBay you would be getting 5 stars, so thanks again mate! Much appreciated for your help.

Will install this Saturday..... Hopefully sorts out my fuel leak issue!

:D
