special tool for tightening injectors?
Anyone figured out a way to tighten the retaining nut without removing the lines?
About a week ago my #2 retaining nut loosened off and the injector was actually "hopping" on every compression stroke, I managed to get that one tight again with a small crescent wrench but now my #6 injector is oozing diesel around the retaining nut.
Also my #4 injector is always "moist" just under the pressure line nut, any ideas how to get it to seal? I don't want to tighten it any more I'm afraid I'll break something
Thanks

I had the head off and cleaned the injector bores really well before installing the injectors, I also used all new cummins brand copper washers. I don't have dust washers that sit on top of the injector retaining nut, but I did use anti-seize on the threads and injector body. I guess I'll try and remove the lines and retourque the nuts.
Is there a torque spec for the pressure line?
Thanks
