I've got a 2000 model doing the same thing. I tightened up the four screws that hold the valve to the filter housing and that fixed the o-ring leak but now the valve is slowly leaking fuel down the drain tube. Looks like I'll have to replace it after all. I guess about 5 years is all these things are good for. Anyone else having this problem with a later model?
