Guys
I have a couple of questions.
First, it seems that I might have gooned the fuel filter replacement. I had a real tough time taking the pressure regulator off the filter. The 9 year old copper washer was really stuck. It looks like I wasn't paying attention as to where the big adjustable wrench was and now the pressure regulator (#3) has a couple of dents. Also, I have a fuel seep between #3 and #5 right where the #7 washer is. The seep isn't enough for a drip but if I rub my finger I can see fuel residue.
Question is, do I replace #3 or wait for seep to get worse (waiting seems a bit dangerous as there is fuel involved)
Also, those who are familiar with the underside, can you tell me where this seep/leak seems to be coming from. Picture taken from the driver side vantage point (laying down under the driver seat looking forward to the engine.
Thank you
