Fuel Filer drain Valve leaking?

Any of you guys ever had trouble with the fuel filter bowl drain valve leaking? I just noticed mine is starting to leak. Any good ways of getting it to reseal up? I assume it just didn't seat good or something when I did the fuel filter so I opened and closed it again today and I will see what happens. I figure it can't be good for air in the system and it's starting to make a mess of the underside. Thanks.

Havent seen this in a about a month. Very commmon though, either go to ford and get a new valve about $50, or you can get the o-rings of off the web for about $5. Remove the valve install new one or replace the o-rings.

Cool thanks. I guess I should have searched this one. I usually do, but haven't seen it mentioned since I have been on here (about a month) and wasn't too sure about how to search that one. Thanks for the quick reply.

very simple to fix. just get an o ring kit and just replace the two o rings in the drain valve. also get alittle bit of grease to seal and hold the o rings in place. i fixed mine about 3 months ago.
