I replaced the tank pump, and thought everything was going great. However a leak appeared at the frame pump. It was getting dark and cold so, I'll look at it tomorrow.

Can it be a simple fuel line on the frame pump. I'm thinking the extra pressure from the tank pump might be causing the new leak.

Any input on what I should look for.

Your new fuel leak is something that you just need to look at, it's pretty hard to troubleshoot something like that over the internet. Yes it's possible that the fuel line itself could be leaking, they are plastic after all. Could be a clip broken off and the line partially disconnected, pump itself could be leaking, etc.

Thanks Shran,

Got lucky, maybe a seal was dry, but after running it for a bit. It sealed back up an is no longer leaking.

Truck seams to be running great. Time will tell.
