Bev,

Your description of the fuel leak appears to be coming from the 'bleeder screw' on top of your small or secondary fuel filter .....when this screw is backed off, which it is designed to do when bleeding air from the fuel system, fuel will ooze out.......try gently tightening it....careful to not over tighten it.....these screws are very sensitive to over tightening.

I have no idea how a fuel leak and the mixing elbow can be related.

Seem to be loosing some fuel. The tank is good. There is no leak from the tank to the primary filter. It then goes to the engine. No leak there. Pardon my ignorance but there is a round attachment with a gasket on the top that seems to be leaking. There are some small  screws? bolts? holding it down. It seems to be oozing from there. Can I tighten them leaving everything together or do I need to take the mixing elbow off?
