   I noticed that round what i think is my fuel injector there is fuel always around the plug and on the plastic bit where the plug goes into. I can smell petrol in the car aswell. It does look a bit corroded. How can this happen? and what do i need to do? any help would be appreciated cheers

   Investigate further, take the inlet off and get down there and have a look. But if the injector is knackered you will need to get new ones
