leaky deasil

hey hows everyone doing,

Iam wondering if anyone would know the answer about my 1999 350 dualy deasil. Latley i notice fuel leaking out of my carb drain tube on to the ground when iam idling.It even dips when truck is off and nose down on a hill.I turned the drain lever on the carb and fuel pours out and then stops when i close it.Could that valve be bad and how hard would it be to change.Thanks for any help with this matter.

Very common issue lately caused by the switch over to ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD). One of the sponsors on the left, DFuser, carries the replacment o-rings for the drain valve.

I just use the PowerService that Wal-Mart sells. White bottle in the winter, silver in the summer.
