leaky fuel rail fitting

[RichLMM]

I've had a PPE dual fueler kit on my truck for awhile now and the other day at the grocery store i noticed a fuel odor coming from the truck i went in came back out and saw a small puddle under the truck got home and searched for awhile and figured it was coming from the drivers side fuel rail pinpointed it to the fitting at the end of the rail for the dual fueler took the line off to try and tighten the fitting its as tight as i can get it put the line back on ran the truck and still leaking its driving me insane has anyone else had this issue or have a solution for me? thanks

 

[RichLMM]

just replaced the oring on the fitting its still leaking this is irritating not being able to drive my truck i have no idea why it would start leaking after 9 months of being on there

 

[RichLMM]

no one? i was hoping dan would see this and chime in

 

[JD Dave]

Is it coming from the adapter or the line fitting? I had to tighten then heck out of my adapter to get it not to leak. Also the oring wasn't a common size, your sure it was the right one? I put a little fatter one in and mine leaked. why not just take the dual fuelers off since you won't be pulling with that truck anymore.

i'm gonna be taking them off but its so damn cold out right now and i dont have a garage to work on it in my hands go numb after a few minutes so i'm just gonna remove it all when we have warmer weather...i'll go to the dealer and get the exact oring for the FPRV that way there i'm not fishing around looking for one

If I remember correctly when i put the dual cp3 on my lbz you dont use an oring on the adapter fitting on the back of the driverside fuel rail.

yea i was told that and for 9 months it didn't leak...i guess trying th oring on it might help?

This is correct! Its not needed on the fitting that goes into the rail.

I am working on this via PM's with the OP.

Dads truck leaks right out of the top of the drivers side rail @ the pressure relief port. Had to install a catch can to keep from dumping diesel everywhere. It has a PPE Dual Fueler also.

[Dan@PPE]

If its leaking out of the port then the issue is either..... The fitting is not tight enough, the seat on the fitting is damaged or the inside of the rail is damaged. You should NOT have ANY leaks with our kits....

i didn't for 9 months lol now its driving me nuts!

This is on the black truck. I think it has 8000 miles on it. It started leaking a while back. I hadnt touched it since it left the shop. Tore everything down and all was good and tight, reinstalled, same problem.

Had a customer with LBZ puller had this leak. Mark at Huckstorf Diesel fixed it for us at the Dyno. Now I have a cust in TN with the same prob, but he can't get his to stop leaking. Anyone sell the fittings? I don't think PPE wanted to sell him one today when he called.

i got one from dan before i sold the kit

He bought kit from Creatures. I believe they are in contact with PPE and having a fitting shipped out. His rail could be messed up, but we won't know until he tries another fitting.
