ok, so I am walking up to my 76 dumptruck and see something under it and take a look, I see this and notice a leak.




I pop the hood to find this.




In case you can't tell, that is my fuel pump. I drove it 2 days ago and filled up the gas tank. I used non ethanol. I am assuming it is ice, although it is in the 40's today and has been last several. Any ideas?

 

Do you have AC? Have you been using it? If you are low on refrigerant this can happen. I've seen it with the unit in my house anyways.

 

Double post for some reason.

 

No a/c. It was driven into town 2 days ago for tires, then filled it up and drove it home 10 miles. Hasn't been started since.

 

Does the fuel filter leak a little? I believe it is caused by your "fuel filter sweating". The white crystal growing are ice, due to the temperature being lowered extra by the evaporation of gasoline??? Does the stuff smell like gas?

 

oh, yea it is dripping. Never really thought about evaporation.

 

OBF150 Ford-dobie got me up to Google speed. lol

 

think I got the leak fixed, will see if that cures my growth.

 

LOL, I google alot but didn't even think about it for this.

 

I have FTE and Google saved in top of my faves. Actually about a 100 other good Ford truck links and tech stuff too.
