Default fuel leak, F250SD
Why is there fuel dripping out of the short tube coming from the high pressure fuel pump area at the front of the engine, when the engine is running, anyone, please??

Sounds like the fuel/water seperator drain valve is leaking.. The leak is out of the short 'steel' tube that routes around the R/F head and hangs down just behind the timing cover..Correct?

Yes, that's where it is dripping from. I never realized that is where the fuel goes when you open the drain. Thanks Guys, I thought I had a more serious problem. Thanks much!!
