when you jumper the fuel pump on will fuel come out the injectors at all or no? I want to make sure I don't have ANY leaks before I put everything back together. Thanks.

Fuel shouldnt come out of the injectors...Mine have a very slight leak, but its a leak nonetheless..

Hmm, so you can't tell if the injectors were seated good or not right? Without having the car on?

Oh and to add, I got some terrible luck. Been waiting to put my car back together since I lost my new gasket for the upper-to-lower intake manifolds. I order another one from mazdatrix next day air and it gets here and its not the right one. What the hell. At least they're mailing me a new one next day air again.

This is how I do it... I put the ENTIRE fuel system back together, but not installed into the engine. In order to hold the injectors on the rails, I use zip-ties. Then I jumper the the fuel pump, and run the system for about 3-5 mins. Be DAMN sure that your injectors are secure, if one comes off, its going for a trip, and you are gonna get gas EVERYWHERE.. If I dont get any leaks, I try to leave the injectors in the rails for the remaining time the motor is apart. I always use a little oil to help seat the o-rings, and I always have a fresh supply of new ones, just in case. My injectors started dripping after about a minuite or so, which means they are leaky. But I havent gotten new ones yet, too expensive..

What do you mean exactly? I already have the fuel system back together installed and everything. I jumpered the pump and didn't get any leaks. Think thats good enough? I hope so.

Its kind of like a pre-installation check, just to make sure that I am not going to be removing the TB a bunch of times trying to chase a leak...
