Diesel leak
Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2013 8:51 pm
Would welcome an opinion before I take Bongo to garage tomorrow.
Very strong hot diesel smell after relatively short run. Fuel dripping onto undertray and dropping on drive. Recently had fuel pump seals replaced after leak from this area (now ok) but now noticed leak from far left glow plug (?) top of engine above injectors (viewed from Driver's side). Diesel heating up on hot engine and smoking when I took a look! Engine has been lumpy on start up recently but runs fine when warm.
Is it a question of tightening up plug or would a new set of plugs be appropriate? Am I on the right track?
Any help gratefully received.
