The O-rings we're talking about are INSIDE the injectors. You can't 
see them and you can't get to them without cutting the injector 
apart. Your only hope would be to let the injectors and their O-rings 
stew in gas for a few days to see if that fattens them up. Gasoline 
w/alcohol (gasohol) may be better for this than straight gas, but I'm 
not sure about that.
