Fuel Leaking From Top of Filter Housing
I changed my fuel filter yesterday and now it has a VERY bad leak around the top of the housing. I did change the O-ring with the one supplied with the new filter and I am pretty sure it is not the drain valve (I can watch fuel begin to seep around the lid). I also lined the "hole" in the threaded portion of the lid up with the port on the side of the housing. I have the cap on pretty tight right now and don't want to break it, or the housing, by "going Conan" on the torque to tighten this thing down.
HELP!!!! |

if its an aftermarket fuel filter...i have seen some that are a little too tall and wont allow a proper seal.........also, if its a stock filter......make sure that it is seated all the way down before puting hte lid on, and it doesnt take too terribly much torque to seal, it may be overtorqued.......just a few thoughts......Marc
