Fuel leak?

Hello, been looking at your site for a while, as I've been looking for a Powerstroke for a long time. Found the gal of my dreams, Crew Cab, Dually, and 377k miles. Now this is some kinda truck! Bought to pull my race trailer easier. So far, so good, but I've noticed a fuel leak, after shut down, and it's dripping off the flywheel cover, so it must be coming down the back of the block. The filter was changed before I bought the truck, it starts good, except after it has set a while, leading me to believe a problem with the filter installation, runs fine after starting, and doesn't leak while running. Thanks for any help, great ole truck, and in surprisingly good driver. Forgot to mention, she's a 1997. TQ29M

Welcome to the site!

We have just the forums you need to post any question you want about your truck. Click on the Forums tab at the upper left and scroll over the list. I recommend trying this one: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum170/ If that's the wrong one we have other forums for that engine and year of truck.

For additional local support and information try out your state chapter, I happen to have the link: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum124/
