What happens exactly when the filter head goes bad? I have fuel just sitting on top of my filter housing. I thought it could be coming from the bleeder screw but I replaced the oring and its still leaking. Any insight?

Its most likely the oring between the housing and plunger assembly.. its a tapered oring i just put a regular oring on mine

PM Dave, "blksmok" and he can get you the O-ring kits, their like 13$ or so.

I am glad I saw this. I just rebuilt mine about 6-7 months ago and now I have the same problem you described. I couldn't figure out where it was coming from. I had the ppe bleeder screw tight and it still leaked. I might just throw it out and get a new one.
Ok, I'm an idiot sure, and I know more filtration is better, to a point. But if you are running a lift pump with dual filters that take the H2O out and particles out down to 2micron, why leave the factory filter head on, isn't it just a flow restriction at that point?

This is what I for also.. That topside filter is a piece of crap sooner you can get rid of it the better.IMO
For once ill agree with you.
I took mine off, wish i would have done it as soon as i installed the lift pump. Once u have that with the filters, its doin a better job then the factory could ever do, and then it just restricts from there. The bleeder isnt needed with a lift pump and the heater doesnt do crap. Get that thing off there.For once ill agree with you.
Oh shit, it's a full moon and the world is gunna end tonight
