fuel leak
Filled up this morning. Then drove about 20 miles to a store. Went in grabbed some things and came back out. Noticed a puddle of fuel leaking from clutch inspection cover. Guy at work sayz I filled the tanks to full. Not sure I believe it. Thot id run it by you guys to see what u think. Also seems im using more fuel than normal

X2 what Mike said. We develope most of our leaks in "The Valley". When it leaks it goes towards the backand through a "leak" hole on the passenger side. If you shift gears manually, you need to adress this ASAP. The best way to chase it down is to remove the "Darth Vader mask"(filter cover) and clean all that junk out of the valley...cat hair and all. Get it as clean as you can. Then start ti and look for leaks and use a inspection mirror if you have one. There are few "normal" places to look.
Let us know what you find!

Check this sensor on the drivers side of the fuel bowl. It is the "fuel filter vacuum switch" and is known to leak. With the engine running look at where the electrical connector plugs into it as that is where it leaks. New one at International is about $25 or Ford $55 or you can just plug it, can't remember thread size.
