I just finished installing an overhaul kit in one of my 44idf's. It runs great now except for a stubborn fuel leak at the large 19mm filter holder plug just next to the fuel intake. The one that holds the small white filter. That one. I can't get it to stop leaking. Not a pouring out leak but a drip per second leak. I tried loosening it, tightening it and using two gaskets together and it still leaks. both surfaces look clean and smooth. Any ideas?

If with the gasket in place you have a leak, most likely you have some damage of th mating surfaces.
Typically, unless it's a huge gash, the gasket will make up for,the difference... Are you using a gasket there? What type? Is it the right filter or maybe it's holding the part. Just a hair. I know there are what, 10 different accelerator pumps for them....maybe there are multiple filters and you got one too tall. |
