Another fuel leak - t'other end.

So the fuel tank has been replaced and all seemed well. Well, all was well, it was great. But now we have a fuel leak from the front, it's literally pouring out when the engine is running. I assume a split hose?

Before I get covered in fuel trying to work out what's gone wrong, are there any known likely candidates for this?

Thanks.

What engine mate? If it's a 200/300 tdi check lift pump

Sorry of course. It's a Defender 300tdi.

Start her up and rev it using the injection pump under the bonnet and hold it at 3k revs and that will soon show up any pinhole leaked in the pipes, if not check every join starting at the lift pump working your way through every pipe till you get to the injectors. If still no sign of a leak get someone to hold the revs up while you make the same checks again. The leak off pipes between injectors can leak and hold diesel so chek if they are damp. Are you getting Amy problems with air in the system?

Thanks, will take a look when I'm back home tomorrow.

Yes agree with that , leak off pipes went on my 300 tdi , only a small pipe , quite an easy fix ,
