I am leaking air where the glass bowl screws onto the valve body. I have tried "O" rings but no success. Does anyone know what seal is required. Photo attached of the water separator.

hi chester,
i sent you a pdf of what i think the unit is.

Spoke with a tech about your air leak. The o ring is the seal. Look for a very small crack in the upper area where the o ring should seal.
Tom, thanks. Steve, thanks for asking and I will take a look tomorrow and report back.
Found a hair-line crack and ordered a new complete unit through Amazon, $47 with tax. The Parker model number of you original is 06F1C00021 which is replaced with model 06F12AC. Tom held my hand while I sorted all of this out.

had the same problem super glued inside the plastic bowl, fixed the problem
Chester mine was leaking also, Replaced unit and the parts inside were in pieces.
I actually removed mine when broken and just bleed the water from the tank once a month or so and Mike E / Newell liked and agreed with this alteration/fix working fine and has for almost 3 years.
Larry, found that the bleed fitting leaked unless tighten with pliers. Too much work to bleed.
I installed a 3.00 petcock on the bottom of the tank, but understand that others may find it extra labor. I like to check all my systems often and its just on the list. Will talk soon about Mexico.....
