for the last 3 months everytime i park my truck i smell diesel fuel. i pulled the cover off the motor and look at the fuel bowl. all my fuel lines are dry and cracked but the are not leaking. the only place that i see getting wet is under the turbo in that little opening in the valley. does anyone have an idea of whats leaking if its not the fuel lines. i already tryed tightening the the big brass nut on the back of the fuel bowl. what else could be leaking and how much am i looking at to fix it.

 

think that big brass nut is banjo bolt on back of lift pump.check bottom of pump at weep hole.

Lift pump might be going out. Weep hole in the bottom side of the pump leaks on old tired pumps......

While your in there repairing the lift pump I would replace all the fuel lines in the valley. Ford sells a kit that is fairly inexspensive and should get it takin care of
