Test drove the truck today! Beautiful weather.
Yesterday I replaced the o-rings where the HPO lines attach the to the HPOP. Appears to have fixed my leak...now to clean the oil slick in my drive way that took two years to accumulate!

Maybe its not so trick. I assume you are carrying a douple female adapter?

More or less. I just have a specific hose in this truck with two female ends. It also works nice as I can hook up shop air to the tank without an adapter and pressure it up, not having to wait for the brakes to air up in the shop and blow black smoke inside....

Ran the rear tank to below the red line then added B99 for the first time since last fall. Time to clean out my fuel system.

Took a page out of Bama's book and pulled the seats and cleaned the inside of the truck, finised wiring the CB and worked on getting my strobes mounted in the lights.

What did I do to my truck today? :dunno Well I'll tell ya. :D

I noticed that there was a massive fuel leak under the truck when at a stop sign or traffic light. Drove home 50 miles not knowing from where it was leaking but it had full fuel pressure. It was puddling under the fuel bowl and rearward. Most of the passenger side of the engine is covered with splattered fuel. :eek: My downpipe has fried WVO on it where it connects to the turbo :eek:. HPOP reservoir is sticky on the left side. A return hose (head to FPR) had swelled and developed a pin leak :rant . Emptied a can of brake cleaner and some Simple Green to try to clean it up. No problem. Now I'm shoving down a rag to sop up the mess. Will be fixed shortly.
