HEY ALL I INSTALLED MY NEW EDGE EZ BOX ON MY 2001 TODAY AND NOW I NOTICED A PUDDLE OF FUEL UNDER MY TRUCK ANY IDEAS? IN JUST A QUICK LOOK THE INJECTOR LINES LOOK LIKE THEY MAY BE SEEPING A LITTLE BUT NOT ENOUGH TO CAUSE THIS PUDDLE I AM OPEN FOR ANY SUGGESTIONS

THANKS

The EZ install takes place around the fuel filter, check your fuel line connections.

Take a look at the fuel filter canister drain valve. While making the connections for the EZ, it is easy to bump the drain valve open a little.

I agree that it is most likely the drain for the fuel filter housing. If not then simply check the torque on the fuel fittings on the fuel filter housing. You may have mis-aligned on by bumping of pushing one and reseating it will fix 'r right up

I Started to smell fuel and noticed a small (2"-3") spot a couple days later. When I looked under the hood, I found it was comming from near the injector pump. The leak was so slight I couldn't tell where though. I was 300 miles from home. Thought at this rate I would make it no problem. I didn't. A line fitting on the injector pump had backed off and another was loose. I fixed them myself and took it to my dealer the next day. He wasn't suprised. Said I was the third one he'd seen.



I'll make this new post. Would like to know if anyone else has had this happen.
