Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Fuel leak-Help!

[waltmoe]

I change my VP44 injector pump but I cannot get the high pressure fuel lines at the cylinder head from leaking on cylinder number 1 & 3. I toque the fuel lines at the head per the manual to 28 FT/LBS or 330 IN/LBS. When truck is cold, I let the truck idle and I have no leaks until the truck has idle for 8. 0 to 10. 0 minutes or driven and warmed up. Do you have any suggestion how to eliminate this problem? Please help. Thanks

Check your fuel line ends for pitting where they connect to cross-over tubes in head, check the tubes too. Sometimes they can be cleaned up with super fine sandpaper or steel wool. I ended up buying new ones. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the suggestions. I think going with new ones is the way to go. Appreciate the feedback. .
