The new one leaked like a sieve...no matter what I did. It would seemingly stop...but after a test drive, the firewall (inside) would be wet.

I once had a leak where the fuel line connected to the sediment bowl. I even lapped in the fuel line to the sediment bowl. No joy.

I finally used a copper flare fitting gasket. Worked like a charm.
