    Started my car today and it felt like I had a cam fairy stop by and installed an xpz over night.... Thing was lopin and shaking like crazy and I was like wtf? Aeroforce said I had a crazy #6 misdirected so I popped the hood and noticed right on my fuel rail where the FP gauge is it was pouring gas out from the gauge area.... Sweet.....

    Any you guys had leaks here before?

    I got my ZZP modded rails about 3 years ago and used them for about 6 months. Didn't have any issues. Car's been sitting and started every so often since then, but still no leaks. And, it's leaking at the fuel pressure check valve or somewhere in the lines?

    Not from the lines it looks as if its coming from the gauge itself

    well im thinking the plug has that little hole in it to breath excess air out of the gauge so i dont know if the plug is the issue really...

    somehow im getting fuel pushed through that gauge and its shooting out of the breather...

    its worth a shot though IDK where id even find a replacement plug at...

    thanks for the input though ive been searching for hours and cant find ANYTHING about this problem...

    If you have fuel coming out from the rear access plug , then the gauge is no bueno. Installing another plug is not going to help as the pressure will just push it back out. Sorry man time for another gauge. Maybe they will warranty it?
