Default Leaky fuel filter

Replaced my fuel filter today and its leaking fuel all over....I replace all the washers and tightened everything back up to the torques specs. Maybe its the wrong filter-although everything seemd to fit fine. Any sugestions? 91 accord lx

The 1st thing you should do already is to see if you have the wrong filter then ask the same question all over again..

I thought that i had learned this lesson long ago: Use only genuine Honda OEM Parts. Autozone fuel filter: 7$, Honda: 32$ and works great.
