Hello - fuel draining problem

Have a 7.3 diesel and noticed when I park that there is a small amount of diesel fuel under the engine area - looks like it is leaking from the filter drain line. Any ideas on what causes this and how to correct? First issue I have had and almost a 180K miles on my Excursion. Thanks for your help.

Hello and Welcome to the site!

You will need to post your question in the tech forums since this one is used for introductions. Click on the Forums tab at the upper left and look over the boards. I suggest trying this one although some of the diesel forums can also help. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum29/

Stop by the South Carolina chapter and see what your neighbors are up to. Here's the link: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum183/

Good luck and enjoy the site!
