Default Fuel rail question...please help?

i took off the fuel rail on my 91 crx and when i put it back on i lost a piece i think, it spits gas out when i try to start it , i did this like 6 months ago and its been sitting ever since, i dont drive it often and i wanna sell it but want it to start first, i think there are some spacers im missing, i know when you put the fuel rail on, you put the red-ish colored spacers, then slide the rail onto the mounting bolts and then im not sure if there are more spacers before you put the mounting nuts on, i really need a top view pic. of the intake mani. to make sure i have all the parts on correctly, i dont have a manual this second either...if anyone can help i really appreciate it, thanks

You don't always have to replace all the seals

you could be talking about any of 3 parts. if any of them are missing it can leak. there are 3 hard plastic spacers between the rain and the manifold (blue arrows), 4 rubber seals on top of the injectors (yellow arrows) and 4 seals at the base of the injectors (red arrows). if any of them are missing it can cause a leak. sometimes the ones on top of the injectors get stuck in the rail and dont come out with the injector. find out which one(s) missing and replace it. but, no you dont HAVE to replace them unless they disintigrate or ou lose them.


yes i jacked your pic

Also, does it spit fuel out from the injector area, the fuel pressure regulator area, the hose coming off the filter...be a little more specific of where the fuel is coming out at.
