i have a f350 deisel that is pumping fuel out of a tube which runs from the back side of what i guess would be like a throttle body (where the carb is on gas motor -- i no nothing about deisels) . Does anybody have an idea?? Larry |

Yeah, what year? 7.3 has a fuel filter, heater combination about in that spot. I had a sensor go bad and leak from that device. Think there are o-rings on those feed lines to it too. This is a premier site for Ford Navistar diesel engines. http://www.thedieselstop.com/forums/ Just pick the appropriate forum and do a search. |

thanks gary, I did a search on that site which told me the tube is a drain for the filter housing. It says that there should be a yellow drain handle back there and it is a common problem for the o-rings to go bad. I printed out a step by step guide on how to change them. Does it sound like im on the right track to you guys???? |

Yes you are on the right track, remember it is very important that you pre-oil your o-rings when you put them on, that way it will not rupture on you when you put it together. Let us know how it went. |
