Father-son,
I tried a different shutoff valve on the tank and was able to get it pointing in the correct direction. Be sure you add an in tank filter while you have it apart.
I take it we are talking about the fuel line from the shutoff to the filter. First check the seats on the shutoff and the filter. I had to fit my gas line 3 times before it stopped leaking. Had to bend the line just a bit to get it to seat straight.
Good luck,
Ed
