Fuel leak
Ok guys, 2002 7.3, had and still have a fuel leak. I bought an o-ring kit for my fuel+water drain and took it off, found a great sight on you-tube to show me step by step how to rebuild it. Now the tricky part, when I pulled out the stem out of the middle, mine was in two parts, both parts turned together, had kind of a half-moon shaped ends that fit together, so I thought mine is a little different. Well it all went back together like it should and both parts turned as it should. "Damn this is getting long", fuel leak still there not as bad, but hard to start if sits over night, if it sits a week you need a little starting fluid. Thanks. John

Thanks for the replys, the problem was one of my battery terminals was loose and starter was not turning fast enough, I saw a little smoke comming from it, so I knew it was getting hot, thanks all. John
