welcome to the addiction

thanks to all

Update:

I found out that the fuel leak indeed is at the fuel filter bowl..... I bought a fuel filter today $28 at autozone, the leak looks like it's coming from the top but diesel it's all over the place

Is it bad enough to see as the truck runs? Recently had to replace the fuel bowl drain valve on mine. Also had the filter cover gasket blow on me once... can't overtighten that cover. Wash it down, easier to see where stuff is coming from.

Well guys it seems like the new filter and gaskets fix the leak. The guy at the dealer forgot to removed the lower gasket; also it was leaking from thru the top gasket on the backside of he bowl into the valley.

Nice, it was an easy fix! Now you're good to move on to the fun stuff...

Well guys I've been working a lot, and on my spare time I've done a couple of things to the truck.

1. stripped the bed and painted with liner
2. Had the windows tinted
3. painted the front grill. bumper & headlight trim
4. I'm also have straight pipes but still 3.5"

I also been dealing with another fuel leak, this time it was coming from the fuel bowl drain pipe; this morning I put a plug on the pipe and by noon I had a pool in my engine valley...

I'm getting the O-rings from my local McMaster tomorrow, hoping that will fix it.

here are some pics:
