You can get a valve core tool from most aftermarket shops. Try removing and reinstalling the core to see if the leak stops.
If not, you can next buy the whole valve as a replacement from Ford. Be sure to use some teflon tape on the threads when installing. 10 mm wrench if I recall.

I'm glad you got it fixed before having a fire!
.. also glad you realized that you could buy a new core. I intended to include that bit of info, but just forgot to. Just make sure its one that has gasoline resistant components ... not just for bicycle tires.
