Hi, It is a F391-53s available from Aviall or API. About $25.00. We change them with fuel in the tank. You will get fuel down your elbow. You might change it next time it gets low. Also, have you tried blowing air in the drain. With the fuel cap loose, take an air nozzle and blow up thru the drain valve. Works most of the time.

Don,

    I have a drip from the fuel sump drain under the left wing. I have played with it but still a slight drip. Do you replace the entire valve and can this be done with fuel in the tank. Can I get one from aircraft spruce and do you know the part #. Any help would be appreciated. don
