Need help with fuel leak

colo00F250 · #1 (**permalink**) 10-29-2009, 02:02 PM

When the engine is running, fuel leaks from the fuel/water separator tube. From what I have read on some threads is that some o rings in the bowl need replaced. Can I do this myself? and why do I keep getting shocked by the glow plug wires when I open the fuel/water separator line. Im no mechanic but I dont remember it doing that before.
Thanks for your help.

it might take a little longer than 20 min but its easy......kinda tight back there......and take a rag and spread it out back there as much as you can to catch any little part u might drop trust me its a pain to find it if you do drop it good luck

4 screws hold on the valve, they are torx, I think t25. There are 3 O-rings.
