7 3 Fuel Bowl Leak
Worked great until last week.
7 3 fuel bowl leak. Give me a shout man. I have the blue 0 rings that are supposed to be the best so i thought. My fuel drain was leaking again. Too bad you re not down the road still i could have helped you out.
I overhauled my fuel bowl last year with the kit from guzzle because i was having a leak at the drain valve. It was pluged in you guys in alaska or montana know what i am talking about the temp was about 20 to 30 started up fine and i let it warm up for 15 minutes and when i go to the trk there is a puddle of fuel under neath smells like fuel all the way home i get in the garage and look under and fuel in. The new ultra low sulfur diesel fuel eats away these seals on the valve. Still leaks a touch but not too horrible.
Here s what you ll need. Had a cold front went through and my truck has been outside. Driving my 7 3l diesel moving through the air everything was fine but i began to smell raw fuel smell when i came to a stop with the heat on. 281k miles on my tow pig so i can t complain.
How to repair or replace the water drain valve on the 7 3 powerstroke. Size 20 torx bit. Quadruple check everything you ve touched make sure the valley and fuel bowl are still clean and when your confident clean up cycle the key a few times to get fuel in the fuel bowl and crank her up check for leaks drive around for about 20 miles and recheck to see if it is leaking if it is then you can use this method. I actually priced a fuel bowl delete kit that was in a recent diesel power mag but for close to 1 500 to 2 000 if memory serves me correctly i ll eventually just get another fuel bowl.
