Crazy fuel leak....

I have a fuel leak that seems to be stumping me.....

One leak seems to be coming from where the metal line go into the rubber line under the truck.

But I have another leak that seems to be coming from near the lift pump. But I can never see the leak when the truck is running. I will leak very quickly and then stop. It seems to be pressure related....???

It could be the pump itself. Mine was starting to ooze before I replaced it.

Pressurize the tank, 5 psi max, with compressed air and you'll find any leaks quickly.
