405 diesal leak

sean storer via CarKB.com 2 April 2005 15:38:26
 i got a 405 turbo diesal 1.9 with lucas fuel pump and got a serious diesal
leak from the engine compartment near top of engine i think. it appears to
be from cam belt side of engine rather than from fuel pump section on top i
checked all pipes going to pump and nothing from there has anyone got any
ideas? when i say serious i lost bout 1/2 tank of fuel in couple of miles.
it only leaks when engine is running not when ignition is on if that helps

 the engine was acting very sluggih hardly any power then the power came
back but with the leak does that work with the theory about drive end seal?
the engine runs fine now but throws diesel out. would it b easier and
cheaper to get replacacement from scrappies ?

Doesn't cost that much to get the seal replaced as long as there is no
other damage. Of course you would have to get the pump off, but you
would have to do that whichever route you took.

Just make sure that the leak off pipes on the injectors are still OK. I had
a similar problem with a leak, top offside of the engine, and it was the
leak off pipe on the timing end injector, the one which is just a plug.
Worth checking before stripping half the engine down.

Brian.

 if it leaks only when running, its worth checking the fuel return pipe,
as this could be the problem, and it is in the timing belt area,

also bear in mind that if the belt is contaminated it needs renewing too

 i tried looking for the fuel return pipe but cant seem to locate it in the
timing belt area there doesnt seem to be any pipes around that area at all
i think the fuel return goes round other side doesnt it ????
