I hear ya ! I’m super duper cautious with things like these. I just recalled. I haven’t let any of the water out from the small drip line of the fuel filter. Might have condensation/water. Thanks for you repliesI had that same issue when I replaced the fuel filter and mine persisted slightly for a couple starts. If it feels the same as when you replaced your fuel filter I’d say look at the fuel supply system or, as you thought, the electronics that regulate the fuel supply. If you didn’t torque the fuel filter it could be that even though it’s been 4 months. Those O-rings need to be lubricated with diesel before you install the fuel filter or it can stick, be up to torque spec and act like it’s sealed up but leak later. Check under the Jeep to see if any diesel has dripped. Same song different verse with the oil filter. Lubricate the O-rings.
