Injector Leak 460 Diesel

Posted by Smith1000 on September 07, 2006 at 16:57:46 from (64.12.116.65):

It is all back together with a new head gasket. There is a slight air leak around the #2 cyl injector. That is the one that was leaking a bit before I replaced the head gasket. The head gasket is very tight, no leaks at all. I had a hard time getting that injector out and never did get the cup out of the head. The #2 cyl exhaust valve was replaced when machined.

I have the metal rings in place. Is there any way to get the air leaked stopped? Do I just not have it sealed right? It is bolted down tight. When running when first cold, it has a miss that pretty much clears up when hot (especially when the throttle is applied). Probably is the air leak, not sure. I have not retimed the pump recently.
