Check to make sure the hard return line is on perfectly. I installed my FPR and had no leaks, but I too had 100 PSI.
Turned out the hard return line was not butted against the FPR housing just right.

The last time we were traveling through NM was in November of 2019 and it was chilly as we arrived in Santa Fe for the evening. We have family there and usually go through TX, AZ and NM either on the way to ID or on the way home to GA. We usually go through a couple of the National Parks out there and into Ouray Colorado as well. The million dollar highway is a great stretch of road if you are ever in that neck of the woods of CO.
As I loosened the line fitting to remove the FPR and check the spring, the line bumped or moved into place by about 1/8". It was a very small amount it was off by. You will get this, you are almost there!

If they went USPS, they'll have to go through PA and FL before they head your way.

Oh well all is holding, 30 psi is causing the truck to be sluggish upon acceleration, it was great at 100 psi LOL
But now i understand why the truck would die while towing, would start back up once i let off the pedal, the old girl was running out of fuel!

For the past several months, any time I get something from the west coast states it gets delayed a few days. Luckily I have not been in a time crunch. A package from Riffraff took 2.5 weeks at no fault of Clay.
A small package from CA was lost for 10 days after taking 5 days to get to Atlanta. It was found on Sunday in TN, but is back in Atlanta again as of yesterday.
I hope your parts find their way to you quickly.

I have one that made it to my local hub from TN in two days then they sent it to the wrong town yesterday and it has no updates since 0700 yesterday. I know they can't do anything about it but I'll call my local Postmaster and have him/her track it for me just because and so they can see for themselves what we are experiencing.
