Fuel Water Seperator Fuel Leak
I have a fuel leak coming from, what appears to be the bottom of the fuel water seperator. Change filter housing recently for this issue and it still leaks. Was on a trip to Oragon coast with no problems. Drove the pass last weekend and could fell fuel from under fuel filter housing.

Ok so, I am going to get this wix replacement filter 33617 and see how it works. If I understand correctly it replaces the filter with the bowl in the bottom. I has the drain and sensor port built into it. Sounds like a fix. Well reply as to outcome. Thanks for your input 1994F2507.3L and Dave Sponaugle. Have a great day.

i have the same problem.i took my drain out and plugged it with the rubber washer that was there and a nut/bolt.-still slowly leaks cus i used the worn out washer lmao.
id like to have a drain again.this filter has:
# Complete Spin On With Drain And Sensor Port
http://www.amazon.com/Wix-33617-Spin...996969&sr=8-13
is that so the "water in fuel" light will come on when there's water in there?
also,i once or twice saw a site selling the stock housing.anyone have that handy?
edit: oh here that is; Racor bowl for F826B: $45.00

That Wix 3617 is notorious for leaking, the sensor also likes to break off in cold weather.
Thats why I recommend the Racor - Parker PF BF811 6.9L Ford Spinon or Racor - Parker PF F829B 7.3L Ford Spinon.
-Enjoy
