Just after getting the head gasket changed (under warranty). I noticed the strong smell of diesel in the car whenever we use the fan, I had the same in my merc and it was the injectors leaking. I checked the injectors and they are leaking too, if I change the seals myself do I need to disconnect the injectors and then calibrate them?

Cheers guys!

Surely if you had the head done under warranty, then whoever did it has made this issue and should sort it out.

take it back and get the garage to correct the fault. they should use new injector pipes and also injector clamps. do not attempt to do it yourself or try and nip up the offending pipe
