Newport, Newport, so good they named it twice
My defender 200tdi is leaking diesel from the injector pump, looks as though its leaking from a gasket at the point where the castings are mated (around the area of the fuel cut off solenoid). Is it possible to split the pump and change the gasket or is it a new injector job?
Any help appreciated as Ive done a search and found nothing:(
 
Yes all the seals and gaskets in injection pumps can be changed. Some can be done in situ, some need the pump taking off, if it's the one I think it is you could do it on the engine. Another option is to get it rebuilt by a injection specialist for about £120 - then you know it's good for another couple 100 thousand miles!
 
Ok, I know where the leak is from and how to repair but Im a little perplexed.

I have the huge land rover manual (about 2000 pages) its telling me how to remove the pump, setting engine at TDC blah blah but there is one thing Im unsure of, in the manual it states this job requires 3 specialist tools, 2 of these are timing pins, one for the flywheel and one for the fuel injection pump but the other is a fuel injection pump gear retaining tool, does anyone know if I actually need to use this and if so do they know where I can get one from or preferably provide me with dimensions so I can make one.
Cheers
