Fuel bowel drain Valve

Ok Im lossing fuel out of the line where you drain the fuel bowl when you change your filter. Its a not a stream but a pretty good drip at Idle. I removed the filter installed it checked the valve its all the way closed. I have opened and closed it many times. Does anyone have any directions on how to change that valve? Thank you for any help

The valve has four screws holding it in place, IIRC. There are two o-rings, which you can get at the hardware store: 1/2" OD x 1/4" ID x 1/8" thick.

I have a good writeup saved somewhere that I'll try to find...

Ah, here check this out on Pure Diesel Performance's site:

o-ring kit: http://www.puredieselpower.com/catal...roducts_id=103

install instructions: crud, looks like the link to the install insctructions is down. If you call Garrett Shields at PDP, mention that to him and he can probably send you the instructions or put them back up on the site.

Yep. It's not uncommon at all for the dealer to make you buy a whole new fuel bowl. Buy extras and keep them in the truck.
