leaky furnace

I came home on sunday night only to find the downstais steaming up with the hot Water all over the place. With a little bit of investigation , i find out that the h2o was coming from 2 places.1 from the pressure valve and 2 a pipe coming out of the furnace. I manage to shutoff the water, replace/ rebuild the pressure valve( pick one up at the local home improvement store and replaced the gasget and the ring and bolt) that seem to stop the water coming from there. But when i turned the water valve back on, It is still leaking What gives? is there an " easy reset switch" somewhere? At least that what I'm hoping Please help.
Boiler system is a weil mclain unsure of the install date.
