fuel line leak

Hello Bronco Friends,

Started the old girl up today and noticed a leak under the hood. Can anyone tell me what this silver dial is called? leaking like crazy from that dial Also, i am assuming that it controls the amount of fuel coming out?

thanks

If I had to guess I'd say it's an aftermarket fuel pressure regulator. If it's leaking, you'll want to get a different one and try and set it to the same pressure.

A stubby wrench and knowing it’s going to take a while to find the bolt and barely move in between resetting the wrench is what it takes took me about 15-20 mins on the back end alone. Who is billing 166 per hour that’s insane makes me want to jack up my rate for marine work then say but it’s still less than dealership pricing lol
