I have to replace my fuel filter drain valve on my e99. I'm going to replace the valve instead of just the o rings. Is the best place to buy this the dealer or does Napa sell them?
Riffraff or Dieselorings would be who I would go through I know when I went to Ford to get them they wanted $45 just for Orings I passed and went through Dieselorings.

Wha, wha, whaaatttt????? I got a whole O-ring kit for like $35.00 and it has a lot of O-rings in it.

Yup. Was in a pinch and had to buy valve cover gaskets and the wiring from ford and that cost me just a little over $400 but I needed my truck on the road so I had to do it. If I remember right they wanted $120 just for the valve cover gaskets a piece. That's why if I can I order from riffraff or Dieselorings.
Ford does sell the Oring kit for the fuel valve. Couldn't tell you a part number though.
Yes, that's well known, however two O-rings specifically for that valve isn't a kit (the way I understand it) when compared to what has been widely accepted as an O-Ring kit sold by Bob at Diesel O-Rings and Clay at Riffraff.
That's what I misunderstood Walleye's post to say. I thought he was saying he got a similar kit from Ford.
I got something that looks like this. It was $35-$40 and covers me on a lot of stuff like household plumbing, swimming pool, car and truck applications. Many times it's more of a hassle to make the trip to ACE than it is to buy the $.50 O-ring. Large O-rings that the pool supply store wants $15 for the guy gives me for free because it costs more to do the paperwork than the $1 the O-ring costs. I asked about different applications and he told me that there are only a couple of applications where special compounds are necessary for the O-rings. I use 'em and have no problems, even in the chlorine harsh pool environment.
