I cleaned everything up in the valley tonight looking for my fuel leak and it was pretty easy to see that it started leaking from the back of the lift pump... It wasn't a drip or anything, it just "oozed" out. Is this the weep hole?

Then after about 2 minutes I started to see a little bit of fuel accumulating just in front of the lift pump (towards the front bumper of the truck). Is this common with a weep hole leak?

Sorry about the long post... I've just never seen a weep hole before, I just always here everyone on here cussing them out.

Thanks in advance,
Zach

Leaking from the weep hole seems to appear from nowhere...

Sounds about right then... I guess I'll need a new lift pump. Any other recommendations while I have the filter housing out and stuff?
Thanks again.

badger, go to ford and get the replacement hoses for the fuel bowl, theyre the blue ones. other than that id say just clean the fuel bowl up really good and pick up all your lost wrenches and screwdrivers out of the valley. you may or may not want to attempt to change out the banjo nut gaskets. i did mine but they were a PITA. you might want to go buy a POS wrench to fit on the banjo nut too. i had to cut the end off of one of mine and weld it back on at a straigh angel to get it under the turbo. i think its 1 1/8" but not 100% sure. good luck.
