ARRRGHHHHHH!~!!!!!!! HPOP o ring replacement gone bad!!!

all right, got the o rings in during lunch, got the fuel filter housing back on, had rubber seals destroyed on the tubing leading to everything, used some Viton o rings to hope fully make it work ( fingers are crossed ) Go to start the trucjk, I have Diesel just dumping from a tube that runs just under the front of the motor and stops, the tube is right next to the EBPS tube, it appears to go no where.. HELP

Ya... didnt even know there was a f'n drain valve there. I used a hand vacuum to pull the diesel out. A buddy of mine decided to take the housing in the shop and clean it for me. Never thought anything of it... I wish there was a camera there for when I saw the fuel dump..

We are doing great. All we got out of that storm was a very little wind and rain. I am keeping an eye on Ike, to see if we have to leave. That sucks.

Thanks for asking.

As soon as I get out of here for the rest of the day, I will run her and find out. Nothing was leaking (except fuel) when I started her in the begining.
