Default Walbro 255LPH Fuel Pump = Leaking FPR HELP

I just installed a Walbro 255LPH Fuel Pump, on my civic and it was bogging big time, on the way to my firends house, he had some firends over and they wanted to see the car so i poped the hood and started it, it started leaking Fuel all out from the AEM FPR, It was shoting out in 3 spots.
It was leaking from the (--) Thing that connect to the line.
Here a old engine shot, but my FPR is still the same way, it never leaked before

I had to call my mom and get picked up, she was hella pissed, 2 much money into a unriable car, think i need to buy a gasket for the FPR, becuase the i havn't touched the think, but after the install of the pump.
I think it's flowing 2 much fuel and it's leaking, the fpr is all the way tighten up.

Im getting it towed to my local performance shop, unless i find someting to fix it

What should i do?

Well I fixed the prob, what a day

Had to call my firend to drive me down to my firends house, had to call the tow truck guy, fucken 60 bucks, they won't tow a lower car, had to take off my front bumper

Towed to the shop, they worked on it, and couldn't get it to work, said it was the high flow fuel pump, my buddie picks me up, go to my other firends shop, when they are looking at whats wrong. He left, and the shop called and said it's the pump, put back your stock one in, but it was at home, and i didn't have a car, call up my other firends, he is 4 citys away, stright folks, he comes picks me up at my firends audio shop, go to the perforce shop, to get my keys so i can go into the house, i said i would come back with tools and do the fuel pump, he drives me to my house, and we get the tools, go back to the perforce shop, i switch out to the stock pump, it's STILL leaks like a fucken sprinker, it was 6:00pm and the shop was closing, one of the nice guys who worked there, help me try to fix it, we tryed like 5 differnet things, and used honda gasket sealer on both side, and let it dry, YA no leak, No more Sprinker of Fuel, i found out the it was leaking fuel before and it burned some of wires, not bad, eveything still worked. Go it work and thanked my buddie for the taxi service. Im just got i got it working agian, i lost to his eclipse fucken 5.5 psi anit ****. Ill put the pump back in, and hope for no leaks. 8 PSI soon.

left at 11am and got home at 11pm, i chilled with my buddie who gave me a ride and bought him dinner at togo's.

id say you were missing an o-ring somewhere. a pump shouldnt cause a FPR to leak. excess pressure just returns to the tank.
