hey adam
i had the same problem with my 18ss engine.
do you have the same engine.
i had fuel leaking out when the engine was running so i thought
it was the gasket between the head and block.
it turned out it was the glow plug gasket was egged shaped. it happened when i first got the truck and i think
it was my fault beacuse as soon as i got my truck i pulled the stock plug out and put some after run oil in it
and i might of bent the glow plug gasket.

Different engine. When you say the glow plug gasket are we taking the copper washer??

hey adam
yep. the copper gasket. the only way i found the leak was to run the engine
at WOT while looking down at the glow plug. the fuel was pouring out big time at WOT.
