leaking injectors

my injectors are leaking on two of them. coming up from the hold down nut. I need to take them out and loosen and retorque the nozzle end I guess. any other ideas on getting them to not weep? just put them in a few weeks ago and was smelling diesel, but took a few weeks to start showing up.
 
It's almost always the return gasket leaking and fuel running down onto the hold down nut.
 
i'll blow some air on it and check it out again. the return seals are new, maybe I have a loose one.
 
Lately I've gotten a few sets of injectors from a really well known company with the nozzle retaining nuts loose. I would check those, throw a new washer on the nozzle and a new U washer on the return and you should be good
 
If the nozzle retaining nut was that loose it would have shown on a leak down during testing.
 
well I think I got it. one return line leaking slightly, and one line nut. seems to be good now. Thanks.
