Abstract
A fuel injector assembly comprises a fuel injector having an inlet end and an outlet end, and further having an associated fuel rail assembly. An o-ring seal is located approximately at the inlet end to prevent fluid from leaking out of the fuel injector and the fuel rail assembly. A groove in the inlet end is located above the o-ring seal, and a retainer member is constructed to be received into the groove to provide positional constraint to the o-ring seal.
