fuel leak
i started to smell fuel about a week ago, well i found where its coming from the fuel seperator line i checked the valve it seems tight but when i run the truck i can see it drip out of the tube in a steady drip i was thinking of plugging the line till i can get it fixed. i changed the filter but that did not help anyone else have this problem?

Hi, this is my first post. Yes,I have the same problem and that is why I joined this forum. I went out to the garage after lunch today and saw a small puddle of diesel fuel on the garage floor. I've ruled out the fuel pump because the truck runs fine. I am thinking it's a hole in the hose or a bad seal. From what I can tell, the drip follows the contour of the front x member and falls at the bottom of the apex. I will have to get it up off the ground to have a look, but it should be an easy fix. In the 126k miles I have had the truck, this is the first issue I have ever had outside of brakes/shocks.
