So when I thought I was at the end with this project (headgaskets and tranny swap from auto to manual) I go to start it and when the fuel pump primed the lines I smelt gas. I also found that gas was coming out in the connections with a banjo. So, I got new crush washers and installed them. Now, I go to prime the system again and it is still leaking gas. I'm at my wits end with this project and really would like some tips/advice to why is it still leaking. Thanks

is it possible to have over tightened them?

 

leaking in the same spot? Theres usually 2 washers per banjo bolt.... did u replace both?

 

Yea I replaced both, having just sheared off one of the bolts indicates to me I was over tightening....

 

lol... WHOOPS.... Been there done that... torque wrenches are my best friends now.
