Hi everyone. Started up the pool yesterday and the Valve on top of my sand filter is leaking around the brim (if you will). It is leaking in the main seem of the valve. I tried to tighten the philips head screws, but no luck. Any chance the gasket (wagon wheel is it?) is bad? I have to confess that I left this thing out over the winter for the first time this year, and go figure.... I just hope something did not crack. It operates fine, but only leaks at the seam a few drops a minute. I'm hoping this may be a gasket issue...

Sorry- I do not have the exact model handy, and not sure if it's a 6 or 7 way valve, if that makes a difference.


Thanks in advance for your help!
