Consumer Description

I NOTICED A STRONG DIESEL SMELL WHILE DRIVING MY 1999 FORD F350 PICKUP TWO WEEKS AGO. UPON INVESTIGATION I FOUND DIESEL HAD SPRAYED ON THE TOP OF THE HOT ENGINE. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO A LOCAL SHOP; THE MECHANIC TOLD ME, "YEAH, WE SEE THIS ALL THE TIME, USUALLY ON TRUCKS OF THIS AGE. IT'S THE FUEL DRAIN VALVE BEHIND THE FILTER CASING." I DO NOT LIKE THE IDEA OF ANY FUEL SPRAYING ONTO THE TOP OF A HOT ENGINE! *TR
