New injectors Leak test?????

Ok so i just put in a set of brand new 720 injectors all around. So what is the best way to make sure that they are not leaking from the O rings?????
or anyplace else for that matter?

Its almost impossible to see the injectores with the UIM on and of course the car wont run with out it. My plan was just to pressureize the system and see if that works but i wasnt sure if there was a better way.


Thanks
Augie

I'm guessing you have a TII by the injector size, so it is actually easy to test it! With the UIM off, Jumper the two wire plug by the AFM. Turn the ignition to the ON position (do not attempt to start the car). Observe the injectors. This jumper makes the fuel pump run as long as the IGN is ON. Once you are satisfied there are no leaks (leave pump on at least 5 mins to account for seepage), turn IGN OFF, remove jumper wire, and button everything up.

Yes its a T2. Ok so i found the jumper. Looked in my FSM and it is right where you said

Question number two is... If there is a leak, how do i depressurize the fuel system again so i can work on if. Usually i hit my fuel cut switch and just crank it over and let it stall. But is there another way?
