I posted this in the main forum because I know lots of tractors probably use this type of sediment bowl/gas valve setup other than ACs. Basically, it's not the sediment bowl or the outlet or the inlet that is leaking, nor the connection to the tank.
The actual leak is coming from where you have the thumbscrew that opens and closes the valve. It sticks a little and whether it is open or closed, it just drips gasoline. It has done it for awhile now, but it has gotten really bad in recent months.
Again, it is leaking out of the thumbscrew area. If I take out that bolt that holds the thumbscrew in, is there some sort of gasket in there I can replace? Or is there a custom fix I can do for it? I hate to buy ANOTHER new gas valve for it... Especially when it's just that part that leaks.
The gas valve is new as of probably... 6 or 7 years ago? Hard to say.
