SO here is a series of pictures for yall,
you can see wetness and oiliness all over the filter housing, you can also see some on the second injector area and frame rail. i do not see any new fuel or fluids anywhere but this is the only bad stuff i could find.
****it broke the cable clean off... dont worry replacement already installed and its on the german sclae of tightness... GootnTight
here is the new filter housing and filter installed, shouldnt have any issues as its about to be summer as far as the gelling, im going to look into putting in a filter housing that has 2 inlets and 2 outlets so that i can look at putting in a pressure guage and petcock and possibly a heater of some kind... we shall see
here you can see i used 2 1" standoffs to bring the filter housing away from the wires and firewall. it also helps to adjust for the filter housing not matching up with the bolt pattern perfectly...
anyways after running for 30 minutes and watching for leaks i do detect some fuel seepage from the teflon tape around the 1/2" NPT fittings ill keep an eye on them but with the amount of fuel the filter holds it shouldnt be a major issue but only time will tell
