Went to start the truck today, its 9°. It started up just fine without being plugged in, my problem is i noticed as i was walking back inside that it was pouring diesel out, so i popped the hood, and noticed that the ring of the fuel filter cap was went, so was the valley, and down the back of the FF housing.....What are yall thinking? I changed my fuel filter last week, but it hasnt leaked in over 500 miles?

Think im going to pop off the FF cap, and flip the gasket over. It wasnt beveled so IDK how it could be on wrong, but ill try it anyways

well turned out that the fuel filter cap had a casting flaw in it, sparying a tiny stream of diesel out.
