td5 fuel pressure

Matt2e0fgx said:

The pressure has suddenly dropped and under looking I found the FPR is peeing fuel out when laying under the vehicle and in around s year and a half I have rebuilt it with 2 Bosch kits . last one was put in before Christmas. and with a genuine gasket . mine is a 2004 15p . but I have found 3 types of gasket .

does anyone know the part number for a 15p gasket ?

Funny I fitted that kit a few months ago, if nicked a seal or o ring I thought would leak before now .

Very often they dribble diesel when the diaphragm leaks, and it can find it's way into the clutch if you are not careful, I had a pig of a job with the o ring on the strainer falling out.
