Hi, I own a '85 300GD.
The top of the injector pump where the pipes come out of it to go to the injectors is leaking. Only the three closest to the bulk head is leaking.
Ive heard its a simple fix with washers etc, is this right? and if so does anybody know the part numbers?
Regards, Brian

Diesel injector pump leak.

there are copper washers that compress to make a seal. Look in your yellow pages for any Bosch agent. Some auto electrical companies specialise in diesel parts. Take the pipe off to access the washer and take one to a local guy or garage. they may keep them in stock, a common item.

Some just rely on a tappered nipple :shock: type thingy so may not have a washer at all and just need nipping up. I dont have a diesel G but have trucks so pretty similar when it comes to diesel pipes etc.

you could try mercs, they may be pennies, not all stuff from MB is ££££££££££££££££££££
