I need some help guys....

I just did the free tbi ridge removal trick and while re-installing the unit something went wrong. The fuel inlet is leaking somehow between the two nut bolt combos at the end of the fuel line going into the tbi. It's only when I start the car that fuel drips out.( when I turn the key to "on" it is fine) What should I do? Do I need to buy new parts? Bend the fuel line? Add locktight to the threads!!!!!!!!

there is a plastic washer inside the fuel line conection.Mine was clear and hard to see.It fell out and I allmost lost it .I'm guessing yours is damaged or it fell out while you were working on it.They are in the TBI gasket kit.Hope this helps.

Where can I get this kit and how much is it? I already replacedthe tan ring around the fuel inlet line so I am assuming the clear one you are talking about is inside the doulble threaded nut. Someone please clearify for me.

The complete gasket kit, which you probably have to get to get the washer, was about $35-$40 last time I bought one.
