lmdew Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I've had off and on fuel smell from the engine for a few months. I've checked all the fuel hoses. The 2" on Left side was leaking a bit so I replace it. I also change out the Left side fuel injectors while I had the rail off with some used ones I had. That helped some but I still get fuel smell. I have also changed out the fuel filler pipe which was rusted. I'm thinking new injector o-rings. I looked at the local Subaru Deal and the 8 o-rings are over $90. Crazy. I checked Rock Auto and found these: Anyone have experience with them?

lmdew Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 They installed with ease and seem to be working well. No more fuel smell. BECK/ARNLEY 1580893 Time will tell. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) Nice job tracking down, how did you suspect those? Good grief $10 an oring, seriously! I haven’t swapped many but I’ve never had issues with aftermarket fuel injector orings. Edited March 26, 2018 by idosubaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmdew Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 No other leaks. GD had noted he had changed several for fuel smell. Thanks GD and USMB! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
