Maybe some one here could answer my question.I replaced my lift pump and started the truck to bleed the injectors ,everything went fine until it started leaking fuel around the base of the injector,5th one back (it bubble's around the body and the big nut) so before i go crazy ,What do i do? any reply's would be very helpful thanks

 

Try tightening the big nut. If it doesn't stop, you'll have to pull the injector and replace the copper washer underneath.

 

Thanks for the reply,I ended up doing that then all the others started to do the same thing ,but the 3rd one just would not seal so i ended up pulling it out and cleaning it,while i was cleaning the hold down nut there was a seal on top of it that just disapeared but i put it back together and it sealed , but the truck still has a hard time starting ,I bleed the injectors(maybe im doing it wrong idk) I bleed the filter while it was running , the truck always started quickly but know it cranks like it's out of fuel and stumbles while it's starting,any thoughts ?

 

The seal on top just keeps crud and water from rusting the nut to the injector. I'd replace it but it's OK to run for a while without it.

Sounds like you are getting air in the fuel system. On an '89 in NY I'd be taking a close look at the fuel lines from the tank. Another common leak point is the fuel heater gasket (fuel heater is the thing between the filter and the engine, there's a gasket on top of it). Also the lift pump can leak.

 

The truck was a frame off resto ,it has all new ,pickup,tank ,1/2 plastic lines,and i deleted the fuel heater two yrys ago ,and just replaced the lift pump two weeks ago,but I noticed when i pulled the supply line to the lift pump there was no fuel ,but after it runs and i crack the filter bleeder there is pressure behind it even after it sat over night maybe im doing something wrong idk

 

Is the tank vented?

 

Im pretty sure it is ,I never noticed vacuum behind the gas cap,When i got home tonight i went to start it and it cranked like it was out of fuel and stumbled starting after i was giving it about 1/4 to 1/2 throttle,once it started it took a few seconds to clear up ,the smoke was gray and black like it was flooded,the truck only started doing this in the last two months,so i replaced the lift pump ,I bled the injectors and it seemed fine until it stalled while i was driving at 40mph one day and wouldn't start (i had it towed) got home cracked all the injectors turned it over until fuel came out snuged up the injectors and it started right up ,but now it just dose not want to start
