Hello forum members
I been working in getting a ford 3000 running right so I can do some work on my yard but every time I fix something something else pop up,not complaining actually enjoy it but with no knowledge it takes a long time
Now to my issue...
I got a leak on a line coming out of my Simms fuel pump before I take it out
1) do I have a seal or gasket or ring underneath?
2)if so do anybody knows the part number?
3) do I need to bleed the systems after I change it?
Thank you for any help

Hell they all leak a bit . They are marking there territory .Mine leaks . If it running ok why mess with it. If you pull the injector pump off you need to ask for help from Thepumpguy . He knows his stuff. Removing it is not that simple. Do what you want . Just cautioning you !!!

Thank you high tech I get they all leak a bit I guess my worry was since only one line is leaking if I’m getting less fuel to that cylinder

Don't overthink it.

If ur talking about the steel line that goes from the pump up to the injector, that is an "engine part".. U might be able to take it off & do a light sanding on the ferrule that does the actual sealing.. I found that THAT normally takes care of the problem..
BE SURE to clean the line out before reinstalling.. good luck
