Yeah, well... I took the old filter loose and found that while the filter would thread on to the flared fittings but that's not how they seal. There is a o-ring seal on the filter fittings, so I think I'm gonna take a filter, drill a hole in it and put a pressure fitting on that so I can test the pressure... man, this truck is pissing me off! I was considering trying to flare the steel line, but think that the fitting on the filter is a quicker solution.
