Hey folks, noticed I have a slow fuel leak from somewhere on front passenger side of motor? Any ideas? I checked up by fuel filter, no leak there. Right now its a drip falling to tension rods on front axle. Wanna nip this in the butt before it gets too bad. Thanks for any insight!

Did you check the valve to drain the fuel bowl? o-rings are bad about going out on them. Or maybe its just not close all the way:dunno

I say I hope its the drain rings cause its a cheap easy fix. ( I hope you have skinny fingers) :) And there are THREE o-rings on that valve.

And check the lid again. Mine was leaking slowly and it was hard to spot.

Should have added check those lil rubber fuel lines that connect from the hard line to the bowl on the back.

X3 on the fuel bowl drain o-rings.

They like to start leaking this time of year when the weather starts getting cooler.
