Do you see the issue!!!! i started it up and one of the 60lb injectors are spewing fuel all over the place.

Huh? Are you saying one of the injector orings fell off during your self-install?

That's an awful crappy picture, but it looks like it's not perfectly round all the way around? Like it got crushed/crimped?

Still blurry, but I do see a gash or divot in the oring. That cant be a good thing.

Obviously you caught it in time? No harm done hopefully.
