97 2.0 420sdi leaking diesel fom pump - stevie1234
Hi everyone, need some help, my sons car a 420sdi is losng diesel from the pump,
I have looked and it is coming from right in the centre of the pump in the middle of where all the pipes are going to the injectors, there is a bolt in the centre of something, and the leak is from this something, whatever it is, question is, is there a seal in this something and how do you get it out if it needs replacing.

many thanks in advance

No knowing what engine this car uses makes diagnosis a bit difficult, possibly a Perkins,. Can you see a label on the pump, it will probably either Lucas/CAV or Bosch.

cannot find a name, but it does have marked "Made in Germany" 580-1 so probably Bosch

I've just had a look at one I have here and it has a sort of triangular thing with an 11mm bolt in the centre, dont know if that's the same as yours, if so, have you tried tightening the bolt?
