Hi everyone
I just found a leak from the bottom of my fuel filter. My filter has the metal bottom base and it has a plastic fitting that goes to a line that I think is to drain off water but that fitting keeps coming off and i have a wire that goes to the bottom that I guess goes to the water in fuel light but it too keeps coming off.
I feel a valve like object on the bottom of the filter but i cannot turn it. When the filter was replaced, new gaskets were used on this base. I cannot tell where the fuel is coming from, just that it is dripping from the bottom of the filter onto the valve cover.
Has anyone else had this problem and how can I find the new fittings for the bottom of the filter or does anyone make a new one piece unit?
Thanks
Fletcher
