Major fuel issues
I have a 79 bronco, 400 for a motor, bone stock...i noticed the fuel dumping out of the fuel pump itself. So changed the fuel pump gasket thinking that, that was the issue...fired her up and she leaks just as bad...does anyone have any ideas...maybe a clogged filter, bad lines, any help would be appreciated.

Time for a new fuel pump = D8TZ-9350-B
The old pump is prolly worn out. Ford doesn't even show a repair kit for it, either.

That pump is inches from the left exhaust manifold, and just below the dizzy. You don't want an engine fire from spurting fuel blown all over the engine by the fan.
