Rail Ring

if i replace my fuel rail will my injector stop leaking after the engine warms up?
i have a 93 jeep grand cherokee limited with a 5.2 liter 4whdrive. it is blue and has gold trim. i replaced all of my o rings and 1 injector is still leaking. im pretty sure its leaking by the oring and not the inj. the jeep has 167000 at this point do i need to replace the fuel rail? i tried tapping on the fuel rail bracket and bending it downward and this seemed to help for a little while.
Does it have rear disc brakes? Am/fm cassette? I would replace the rail and the injector where the leak is at. You should never been or beat on a fuel rail. When replacing the o-rings, did you put them in dry or use some sort of lubricant?
Use lightweight 5w-30 CLEAN engine oil to lube the o-rings.
Son’t use anything with silicone. It could possibly swell the o-rings and cause an even worse leak. You can pick up fuel rail at a salvage yard pretty cheap. You should be able to get it with all the injector for around $40-$50. Make sure to buy the o-rings from the Jeep dealer, and there should be one for the top at the rail, and the bottom where it goes into the manifold.
