Help..... Fuel leak.
Hello everybody I have a 96 f250 7.3 with a fuel leak. The leak has been getting worse over the past few months so I had some time off and thought I would fix it. So I bought a o ring kit from diesel o rings and rebuilt the whole fuel bowl because I thought the leak was form the water drain. Got everything cleaned up and replaced, even the 4 lines on the bowl while it was out. Put it back in and its still leaking but with further inspection it looks like it's coming from the front of the fuel pump, not the fuel line but a little further back is there a o ring there or does the pump need replacing. Looks like it can be taken apart with a spanner wrench. Thanks

I'd give that a try. IIRC, the fuel bowl is only pressurized to 7 psi.
Otherwise convert to e-fuel, imo.

I may know a guy with a bowl he might unload for some project bucks... 
PM me if you end up needing one.
