I haven't taken a really good look at the filter leak yet. I just know its got a small dribble at the quick connect side. It very well could be coming down the line from the sending unit. I need to take a better look at it just to see exactly where its coming from. Yes I did do a trap door. I bought the car and it already had this issue, only starting with starting fluid then will start afterwards on its own.

Well I threw an extra fuel rail with injectors and regulator on it and it still bled down, so its somewhere on the feed side. Most likely in the tank. I'm gonna pull the pump and probably just put a fresh piece of fuel injection line in place of that factory style plastic line to be sure. If that doesn't do it, looks like I'm in the market for a new pump.

I'm sure you will but check it before you replace any more parts, this way you know what you fixed and are certain it's actually fixed!

Oh I will check before I actually buy a pump. I'm on a married man budget, so I have a limited spending amount on it anyway. Lol

Update; the car is now running on its own. Turns out the pump did have a bad check valve. I defected the old pump out, threw this one on and it fired right up. I also got the plugs changed and the previous owner was nice enough to use 3 different kinds of spark plugs including one accel plug that was a good 3/4 an inch too short. Now I just have to track down a vacuum leak and bleed my clutch and she will be on the road. Thanks for all the help guys!

Carb cleaner or brake clean help a ton in finding vacuum leaks, why do you think it' got a vacuum leak? The clutch shouldn't need bleeding, why are you thinking it needs to be bled? Just trying to make sure your not making more work for yourself!

The clutch master was bone dry when I bought the car, so it was a completely separate issue. Sorry if that was confusing. Lol. I'm pretty sure it does because it is idling at 2k rpm. I'll probably pop the idle control valve out to see if its all gunked up just to be sure. Probably could use a cleaning anyway.
