Hey - I've ran my engine several time now, and have found a slow fuel leak at the FT-60 (Red Cube) fuel flow transducer.
I have removed the transducer and the nipples, cleaned everything up, goobered the fittings up with Permatex #2, and reassembled it a couple of times only for the leaks to remain.
The fittings only seem to leak when the engine is running. If I pressurize the fuel system with the fuel pump, I am not seeing any leaks.
I'm about 99% sure that I did not overtighten the fittings, as I just took them snub, they added about 1/2 a flat of additional rotation.
Does anyone have any idea as to what could be the problem?
Thanks,
Jason
