Fuel filter?

When you say "little canister" spewing fuel my immediate thought is the fuel filter. However, a fuel filter does not look like a fuel fuel pump. Where is this little canister? If it is indeed the fuel filter and you have an 8 valve (1986 900 Base) it would be mounted on the left front fender on a 16 valve (1986 900S and turbo) it would be at the rear under the car. Are the banjo fittings tight. If it is the fuel filter and it was recently replaced were the sealing washers replaced (they should always be replaced when the filter is replaced).
You might want to repost this on the C900 board where someone knowledgable about early 900s is certain to see it. However, do try to provide more information about the problem and where is canister is located.
I assume you are NOT driving the car with this conditon.
