fuel filter drain plug
Change my fuel filter out yesterday and notice that the drain tube is drippeing fuel slowly. What should I do to correct this problem? I really don't want to of to take it to the dealer.

No need to take it to the dealer, all you need are two 1/2" OD, 1/4" ID, 1/8" wall O-rings. Viton are best, buna-n or nitrile will work just fine. You should be able to get them at a good parts or hardware store, I bought an 8 pack at Schucks for around $3. Then you pull the drain valve off the fuel bowl (#25 Torx bit IIRC) and replace the o-rings, easy sleasy. Takes about 10 minutes to do.
