Fuel leak

[Turbo_pace]

Well I have a pretty good fuel leak on my truck 95 f250 and I don't know where it's coming from, I just replaced all the orings on my fuel bowl, replaced all rubber fuel line. What is a comon place that they leak??

[drus]

It could be the fuel pump, or the banjo bolt on the back of the fuel pump. I had a leak from a sensor on the back of the fuel bowl. I can't remember what its called, but fuel was actually leaking out of that sensor, not where it connects to the fuel bowl.

Ok well I'm gonna wash the motor during lunch and see if I can find fresh fuel on just one spot...

fuel pump is a VERY common leak, just got done doing mine a/b 2 weeks ago. not too hard. looks harder than it is.

also the black sensor on the side of fuel filter housing is known for leaking as well..

the sensor is a vaccum switch, it operates the fuel filter light in the dash. It'll leak when the engine is running. I cant rember if its on the back side/bottom of the fuel bowl on a 95 or not, my 96 was on the fuel regulator. Its known to leak. Save yourself some $$$ and go to lowes/ home depot etc, and buy a pipe plug instead of buying the sensor from ford...75.00 IIRC.

Well that sensor is gone and has a plug in it so I doubt that's where it's leaking, I THINK it's coming from the banjo bolt on the fuel pump, anybody have any part numbers for the crush washers?

Does anybody know if I can get the crush washer from my local part store? Thanks

Get it from your local International parts dealer

that big bolt thru the banjo is probably just loose....get a big box endwrench, (can't remember what size ....1 5/16 mebbe) and tighten the crap outta it...those should be copper washers, and leak if not guddentite.
