Pressurized Fuel From Drain? (video)

Hey guys, I took a video of what is going on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_Hh...ature=youtu.be

This is after the VE Pump was reinstalled following a tappet cover gasket replacement. Any ideas of what is causing this and what needs to be done to correct it?

Thanks!

That looks like the fuel return line to the tank. It seems that it became disconnected and has nothing to do with the IP. Maybe it got broken off while working on it...Mark

Thank you! I just took a closer look and that is exactly what the issue is! Now to find a replacement!

I believe that the hard line goes to the rear of the engine and (in a pita place) there is a rubber hose to the tank. Maybe it was removed for the gasket replacement and never replaced...Mark
