I have a 97 F350 and fought leaks in the valley for months . Turned out it was coming from the fuel pump. After I replaced the pump the leak returned. I did an autopsy and the cause was the way the diaphragm was swaged to the actuator shaft so the atmosphere side would fill with diesel and pump out of the vent holes. I replaced the mechanical pump with an electric pump with filters on the frame and haven't had any diesel leaks for years. So many of the replacement parts are inferior. Same with the mechanical vacuum pump.
@@oskarbud525 you’re absolutely right. I did the fuel pump a few weeks prior to this. I guess I got a good one 😂 I have been seeing and reading a “new wave” of Motorcraft parts that are inferior too. We’re in for some wild times. 🤦🏼♂️ Appreciate the comments, keep em on the road 😎
