question for fass user's?

i installed my fass system yesterday and have a couple questions. first of all i seem to have a leak somewhere near/at the fuel tank suction. i cant tell if it is leaking or if it's just extra fuel from the original suction tube that is leaking out. i turned the fass on and pressurized the system. i dont see any leaking, but after i park the truck or sit in one place for a few minutes, there is a small spot of fuel on the ground. i cant see where it's coming from if i'm looking at the top of the tank. anyone else have this problem? ....2nd. i want to remove all the stock filter and pump assemblies, but what do i do with the sensors? like the water in fuel plug and fuel heater plug? do i just let them hang there?... thanks in advance.

A few things to check. Make sure the filter is tight. Check at the "T" , to see if its leaking there.

i'm pretty sure it's fuel from the old line. it really started coming out when i opened the water drain on the stock filter assy. i'll keep an eye on it for the next couple days and see what happens. what a difference the fass makes though. it keeps right on pulling till it shifts and doesn't starve for fuel at higher revs. thanks for the insight on the leaks...... git-r-done i pm'd you

Just tape-up the sensor connectors so the weather/water doesn't get on the terminals, and leave them. There's no where else to plug them into.

I also had a small leak I thought but it turned out to be the old line draining fuel. I need to cap it off with some type of tape so that it does not get dirt in it.

Just to reiterate what others have said, culprit is most likely the old fuel line... had a spot under my truck for a couple of days...

i narrowed it down to the old fuel line. i haven't had a leak/spot on the ground since yesterday. everything seems to be working great.
