    I was wondering...

    When the fuel rail is replaced or repaired, does the fuel system need to be
    purged?
    While trying to figure out a problem that later turned out to be a computer
    requirubg repalcement, I noticed that fuel leaked in drops from the fuel
    rail schrader valve. While I inspected it, I noticed that the valve would
    not spring back when depressed. I went to the local Auto Parts store and
    picked up a replacement valve for an air condition system. It looked
    indentical to the original and fit perfectly. Now, I'm wondering, since the
    system was opened, did I need to purge the system?

    TIA,

    Jesse

    Keep a *VERY* close eye on it for leaks. It's *probably* OK, but the seal
    "rubber" material used in the Schraeder valve for fuel systems may be
    different to the material used for A/C systems.
    No.
