Fuel leak at the fuel distibutor 93 190e 2.3

I wondered if anyone knows how to fix this. Gas started leaking where the fuel block attaches to the fuel distributor.I changed the little O rings and that worked for a while then I changed the fuel block and O rings and that worked maybe 2 weeks. A mechanic told me I would have to change the fuel dist. to fix it. I t barely seeps but still leaks. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Dick Weed

What is the fuel block?

I was guessing it was the EHA.

If you're right and it's the EHA, then I would suspect the EHA is the faulty component - not the fuel distributor.

Maybe its not called a fuel block. What I'm talking about is the plastic piece that the fuel line goes into that is held on to the fuel distributor. It has o rings gaskets between it and the fuel distributor. that is what is leaking. New info: the EHA is what I've been calling a fuel block. I replaced that after replacing the o rings didn't stop the leak.
Thanks

I think posting some pics is in order. There are no fuel lines connecting to the EHA, although fuel passages connect via o-rings from the body of the fuel distributor. All fuel lines connect to the body of the fuel distributor itself, and without o-rings (flare fittings used). Are you disconnecting the top and bottom halves of the fuel distributor? By 'fuel lines' are you referring to machined fuel passages in various components?

A pic could explain a lot.
