Default leaking fuel injectors

Can anyone tell me why two of my injectors started to leak after I replaced the head gasket? I was very careful to not place the weight of the head on the injectors while it was on the bench for cleaning. It seems like they both leak around the top of the large nut that holds the injectors in the head but I did not remove them. Are they prone to leak at the return line fittings? Does anyone make a rebuild kit for these where I could replace the seals? Thanks for any help! as it's my only vehicle and it's getting to cold to ride my bike any more!

Take the lines apart and make sure they are clean and seated right. We have complete seal kits for 48.50 if you need one. Comes with seals for all 6 injectors.
