Mine only leaks when the FEL is not on the tractor. I still can't figure this one out... I just put a towel on the floor when the FEL is not mounted, but it is most of the time so the leak is minimal.

It is hard to keep the couplers which are on top of the valve from leaking if dirt is allowed to build up of any kind. If an o-ring gets pinched that to could cause a leak. Some times the fittings going into the valve themselves will leak after a bit and need to be retightened. ....
