When I was warming up my truck the other morning, I noticed fuel leaking on my front axle- crawled underneath and there was a drip about every 10sec. After it warms up it quits, checked all fittings everything is tight. I was wondering if anybody has had this happen to them?

Mine leaked intermittently, I thought it was the fuel supply hose from the primary filter but it was the brass 45 deg fitting that wasn't tight in the IP. Just start by checking all fittings and hoses, degrease and watch it.

Agree, you need to pinpoint where it comes from. Pay attention to the center hex plug between the injection lines and to anything that looks like a cracked hydraulic head. Also 3 o-rings that get old and brittle (fuel shutoff , easy; head to body , harder as head needs to come off).
