And, an injector line leak is not a "Dead in the Water" failure. You can keep going with just a small loss of fuel.

Wouldn't have replaced. This is the car I would drive anywhere there was a road. However, there was a considerable amount of fuel squirting out the top...and running down on the turbo Yes, I am a little over compulsive with the car but this failure rattled me.
