Phil came over and we cleaned up the return fuel line connector and fuel rail connector...put in slightly larger (robust) O ring...turned on ignition and drip drip. Damn... now wiped things down and got out magnifier and obvious as a pimple on the end of your nose...as Phil said...manufacturing defect due to flaw in mandrel that made the hard lines. So here is the problem>>>

Once you see it like its OMG how did this thing not leak from the get go :icon_scra I have a high res version of this pic and when you go to 100% (24x24") can see the exact points where fuel was coming thru tube.
Fortunately, I can get a replacement return line... just more $$$$ invested I guess:rolleyes:
And thanks for Phil... this guy is a wealth of information and expertise
