I would look to see if the face of the fuel lines got scratched or nicked at all during the removal mate. Sometimes it may look ok until further inspection we don’t see slight imperfections that lead to fuel leak under pressure. Could be a something in the way, small enough to cause an imperfect seal. Cheers.
I noticed that you took a copper-colored metal piece out of the housing and didn't put it back in. (at 4:35 the piece that I was referring to is sitting right next to the nuts) I did this job a while ago and also noticed that small metal piece, but didn't know what that is nor what does it do. Before I put the new filter back in, I left that metal piece inside the housing. I'm curious that since you didn't put that piece back in, does it affect anything at all? I'm just about to do the fuel pump replacement cuz it died on me, and your video is the most straight forward I can find. Really appreciated!
Good eye @_louis.se_, sorry i forgot to add that part while filming the job. Unfortunately mine broke when I tried to straighten it out before the reinstall. I had no choice but to leave it out and have had no issues luckily for the past 1500kms. 🤞 If mine wasn't snapped in half, it would go back in as well. Cheers.
@@gasNgears Thanks for the reply! I guess I was really lucky that I didn't break it while I tried to wipe down inside the housing. Good to hear it doesn't affect anything. :)
@@GoPercyGo it’s a copper piece that came out of the housing. At 4:35 it’s sitting between nuts and the screw driver on the top left corner of the screen.
I've watched you other video too for the fuel pump itself. Did you do the fuel pump or the fuel filter first? Which one is more important to do first? I would imagine the filter first so you're not running your brand new fuel filter dry when trying to depressurize? Just a thought.
I had to do the fuel pump first, it died on me before I even made it home after purchasing the car. If you have no issues with your fuel pump then, I rekn you should just change the filter first! It would be beneficial to get the dirty filter out so your pump can work properly. Cheers!
Thank you
Thank you for the video! Are there fittings that go onto the fuel line? I installed yhe line back on and its leaking fuel. Thank you.

@@gasNgears I've watched 4:35 like 10 times and can't tell what you guys are talking about in terms of the copper colored metal piece.
