Lift Pump
#1
Lift Pump and Manually Bleeding System!
The old lift pump was definitely leaking so went to replace it with a new one and thought it was all snug back in there but when i took it on a test run, it was leaking tons of fluid. I'm pretty sure it was just diesel. When i triple checked the lift pump bolt, i realized it wasn't tightened all the way. I plan to pick up a torque wrench and new gaskets for the pump.
Now i am afraid that I have all sorts of problems but don't know it. I think i found oil in the fuel pump. and definitely fuel in the oil pump. besides changing the filters and the oil, any recommendations to prevent a huge issue on the 2,000 mile long haul i am suppose to of left for a week ago!
anyone else ever had this happen?
Thanks for reading!

I replaced the lift pump and now there is a significant fuel leak. The previous owner rigged the truck to run on wvo and diesel which bypasses the pre-heater and stock fuel/water separating filter. Does anyone have an idea about what might be going on?
