Issues with Duralast Fuel filter? - Page 2 - Toyota 4Runner Forum

I think the only point to add to this is if you got the Toyota fuel filter and did it stop leaking after that?

Flare nut wrenches are key to getting the fittings tight enough for a good seal

Oh man I thought I’d be clever last year and save the $ on fuel filter since “they’re all the same” and I too became a squirter. Funny part is, I got an oem Toyota one to do it right and it also leaked, but due to a fluke of a manufacturing defect in the threads. Guess the universe wasn’t done teaching me a lesson. The dealer surprisingly trusted that I didn’t mangle it myself, swapped me for a new one, and it was good to go... You do need to torque it a pretty disturbing amount, though.
