Hi all,

I am working on a Mainship 400's fuel filter problem, which is pooling fuel on the top from, I suspect a leak out of the bleed screw.  The system is a Separ which I've not come across having dealt almost exclusively with Racor.

Does anyone have this system?  If yes, I would appreciate any info on where to find parts, ideally in Northern California.  And if anyone else has experienced a fuel leak which pools on top-via a faulty bleed screw/o ring/gasket and solved the problem please share. 

Thanks!
