i can't get the damn brass o-ring out of the head and it is pissing diesel all over the place... ???
any suggestions will be tried, i don't want to screw anything up though :P
thanks in advance.

brass? its supposed to be copper, and when it fails what you get is compression from the cylinders escaping.
not a good sound ;D
if its liquid diesel your getting, its from the injector bodies, high pressure lines or usually from the return lines.
don't get your naked fingers anywhere near a diesel leak, if you get a tiny spec into your skin its byebye finger, or hand depending how far to the nearest hospital :o

Really? Good to know. It is copper I guess and I know the sound of the compression escaping and it is not that. I am just getting liquid from the body I guess. Is there anyway to fix this without using a new injector? I have tried two so far and they both leaked... basically is there anything else I can do before I go and buy a new injector? I guess having two copper o-rings is not as bad as I first thought ;D

you can repair those injectors, any diesel shop can do that
using two washers or one with a different shape is a no no, more smoke, less power, bad fuel economy

ROFTL
problem is when it gets injected INTO the skin (but you know that)

I had the same thought... Ive drank diesel by accident and havnt died yet. But yes, if you take a high pressure blast and it gets INJECTED into you, then youre in a world of pain.
