Currently traveling across Europe and I am in Vienna, heading towards Salzburg tomorrow. I started my XMOD 2.5 NA 90 yesterday morning and I had fuel leaking from my injector pump, first time ever, it is on the bottom coming from a screw and leaking from the largest bolt/screw (gaskets/seals?). I tightened a few bolts that were a little lose, it did not stop the leaks at that time, I left Budapest and it constantly leaked for about 15-20 minutes, then the drips stopped, so I don't know if the pump gaskets etc are expanding/contracting or what. Today I started her again and she started leaking after starting, I only let her run for 5 minutes, I am not driving her today, but will tomorrow. I am wondering if the leaks will stop again after driving for a while. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem, and if I should try to get it fixed while on the road? Itinerary is Salzburg tomorrow for 3 days, then Koln for 2 then over to Bergen op Zoom, issue is the holidays, and don't know if I can get into a shop etc to try and fix it with gasket seal etc.? replace gaskets, or just try to find a new unit and drop it in.... Any expert advice appreciated... I will try and get a pic of the drips, but it is currently in the hotel garage with crappy lighting..:(
 
We are trying to find a solution for the pump in Innsbruck. Looking forward to meet Lance in the next few days.

LR international rescue is working.
 
In contact with Markus, great fellow, I sourced a brand new pump from Sheaf Diesel Services "Andrew", expediting it DHL to my Hotel in Salzburg, will arrive Dec 24th, I will meet up with Markus at his shop on the 26th for an install..
 
Well the part didn't arrive like they said it would, will not be here until at least the 28th now, so I am just going to try and make it the rest of the way with the leaky injector, funny thing is it didn't leak upon starting the other day, who knows....Big thanks to Markus though, he was planning on coming in to the shop to replace the injector for me, even on a holiday, this was very much appreciated, if you are ever in Austria, definitely use his services for repair work...
 
Thanks everyone, I ended up making it to Roosendaal, the pump would leak, then it would stop after 20 minutes or so, the last day it leaked continuously, I was able to get it to the shipper and it is on its way to the USA, the lady sending out the pump sent it by ground and not air originally, so I had DHL return it to the shipper and they sent it again, this time airmail, and arrived in the USA in 2 days, go figure, faster to get to the USA via airmail then to Austria... Thanks for all the help and support, but she limped on...
