I have the same problem with my #5.

I will say that I replaced my fuel return hose that runs from the spin on filter back to the tank return line, and this reduced the leak at the injector by 90%.

The hose that was on there was not the original and I think was to small. I took the OEM one off my parts car (it should bubble out in the middle). Point is I think to much pressure on the return line and those things will leak.

I havn't tried to tighted the injector.

Let me know if that works. It's still weeping a little but much better than before!
