I replaced the sediment bowl assembly and the fuel line from there to the carburetor on my Ford NAA Jubilee and that solved my fuel flow problem. However the compression joint at the sediment bowl assembly leaks. I put teflon tape on it but that didn't help. Decided to put tape AND plumbers dope on it (any comments on this? Can't see how I might use O rings???) I closed the fuel flow valve on the bowl assembly so I could disconnect the fuel line compression joint but it kept leaking for several minutes. When I removed the bowl fuel was still flowing through the shut off valve. I found the nut that the stem of the valve handle goes through was loose but when I tightened it, the valve would still not close so I'm presently letting about 2-1/2 gallons of fuel flow out of the tank into a bucket. Am I missing something here about the fuel shutoff valve or about the compression couplings?
