Is the FMU leaking from the bottom? When I had my FMU it started leaking after awhile. I just put some JB weld around it and that fixed the leak.

not from the fmu at all,its leaking from bottom of the fuel line,buts its on there tighter than ****...with a clamp,my clue is that i think to much fuel pressure might be causing this?

yeah only thing is just check all your lines, usually fuel pressure shouldn't be that high if ur at idle. oh yeah don't forget to not smoke while working on those lines.

Hahaha, your avitar looks like Michael Jackson with ****.
Scary as hell.
Now onto your problem, have you check the line going to the tank?? is there fuel returning to it???
It could be a stuck FMU, seen many happen. It could be stuck so bad that it's not letting fuel return back to the tank.

If it's the FMU then you will have get another one.
I've never taken mine completely apart but only changed the discs.

most of those autozone fuel lines are only able to hold no more then 50 psi.. u probly need a high pressure hose because FMU's bring the pressure up real high
