Zusammenfassung:	A dual fuel injector configuration is provided that includes a plurality of seals around a fuel check needle to prevent transfer of a gaseous fuel to portions of the injector intended for handling of liquid fuel, prevent transfer of liquid fuel to portions of the injector intended for handling of gaseous fuel, or a combination thereof. At least one seal can correspond to a pressure-assisted sealing member suitable for sealing against transfer of liquid fuel. At least one additional seal can correspond to a pressure-assisted sealing member suitable for sealing against transfer of gaseous fuel. The sealing members can be separated by a backing member that provides structural support for one or both of the sealing members. The volume occupied by the backing member can also include a conduit to an external surface of the injector.
