gas leak...

... turns out that the pulsation dampener might not have been the probleemo. but o well, off with its head, treason. so ill just replace this with the trusty banjo bolt and ill be done with that bs problem, but, the injector seals have allot of play when you put them injectors back in, so ill change those.

also, there is another hard, red?, plastic hose under there as well. it runs to the front of the engine. wtf is this, and where the hell do i get a new one? what is it called?

the banjo bolt is not a good permanent fix, you should still put a new pd on there when you get a chance.

a new pd should last you like 10 years. its sort of like the natural vs. synthetic oil debate, its your car do what you want with it.
