Fuel Leak

I am having a fuel leak out of the drain tube that come from the fuel water seperator lever at the back side of the fuel filter holder. I moved the lever back and forth several times thinking maybe it was not seating closed in the closed position. Any ideas why I am getting a slow leak. Steady drip when engine is running.

Sounds like you've got some o-rings that have gone bad on the drain valve. $10.00 fix.
