after getting my brakes a little more sorted, i find a new problem . . . a diesel leak. personally im blaming all this bio diesel that is put in with regular diesel as its just cleaning out all the crap that has up till now been keeping everythingsealed. i seam to be leaking a small ammount of diesel from the throttle, the top side is clean but the underside has evidence of diesel (as well as the side of the engine). got a 4l turbo perkins phaze how do i go about fixing this ? thanks for any help mike If something works, celebrate with tea and cakes...
If it dosent, have tea and cakes anyway.

Re：diesel leak Date Posted：22/07/2012 07:15:39Copy HTML am hoping to look at it today and work out where its comming from, so will get back to you later
i trust that its a easy, cheap fix, that i can do myself, with everything remaining on the engine ? *looks hopeful* If something works, celebrate with tea and cakes...

Re：diesel leak Date Posted：28/07/2012 03:12:36Copy HTML remembered the keys and got a photo of where the leak is comming from
 still hoping for an easy cheap fix * fingers crossed* anybody know of a temp fix that i can do ? (ie that emergency silicone gasket stuff), got a couple hours of driving next weekend, and id prefer not to be pissing money out on to the road. If something works, celebrate with tea and cakes...

Re：diesel leak Date Posted：01/10/2012 06:08:25Copy HTML yeah seam to have fixed it
found that the heater matrix pipe was leaking a little then it was dribbling down the engine picking up dirt and oil, - so when i was investiagting the leaking liquid it didnt smell, feel and look like coolant (got yellow coloured coolant) and at the same time it didnt seam like diesel. i got a little over paranoid as i was sorting the lift pump at the same time, and didnt think things through too much . . . my bad.
