Default Fuel leak

Hi all, I am new to this forum. I have a 1995 960, it drips fuel at the front of the FI fuel rail. This happens only when the motor is cold, once it warms up it stops completely. Does anyone know if this is a known problem and if Volvo has a recall out? Also, how can this get fixed? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I don't think Volvo made it a recall. But it is a common problem. You will have to replace the fuel rail.

not a recall, but it is an update to a new fuel rail. mine did the same thing. i was not impressed with the mod. the 3 big black bolts did not seem to fit right. it seemed like they were just a tad too long, it made the injectors barely fit into the head. i also remeber there was a strange "step" cut in the bolts that may of had something to do with the bad fit.
its not hard to do, i could do another in about an hour or less. the injectors were hard to get out of the fuel rail and i did not want to break something until i new what was going on, rhwn i could break it.
