Defect
A non-conforming step in the manufacturing process allows marking ink to become trapped between the sealing washer and the fuel pipe seating surface. The fuel dissolves the ink, causing the washer to partially deform. In the worst case, fuel leaks from the fuel pipe fitting.
Corrective action
Inspect all vehicles. On any unit with improper marking, clean the fuel pipe seating surface and replace the sealing washer with a new part.
