Anyone on the forum rebuild injectors?

They certainly must have. The injector bodies on the 80's injectors were assembled together using threads that have an interference fit elimimating any need for a gasket or o-ring.

All the injectors that went into the om 61x engines were like you state. No o-rings. I think the later ones are the same. But I've never dealt with earlier injectors.
