Probably some of my issues may be operater error as Im still learning how to make all the adjustments on my new rig. The float does have a cone up into a flared tube. When I spoke with distributor he immediately identified it as an o-ring issue and is sending a replacement. Hopefully this will solve the leak issue, if not I will use the valve to help regulate the sap flow.

Purchased the 18 x 60 this summer, Had the same issue on a test boil, played with the o-ring, tried some food grade grease no luck. Called Maple guys and they sent me a new oring, going to wait till sugaring time to test it out! Hope it works for both of us!
