Fuel Leak summary
Hi!
I'm new to owning a 7.3 powerstroke and I have the dreaded fuel leak. Since I'm new, I'm wondering if anyone can summarize the leaks that normally occur and the best fixes for them. Sources for replacement parts would be great as well.
My fuel leak exits at the starter, but I looked on the top of the engine and it looks like it's coming from the rear of the fuel filter assembly, what I think is the drain. If I dive into it, I would most likely replace all of the hoses and the lift pump as well.
Any information is extreemely useful!
