hi, i have diesel leaking from the top of the diesel pump,it is coming out of where the throttle linkage goes into the pump...i am assuming a seal has gone cos it didn't leak while the engine was in the other  motor,is it a specialist job if so any local to kettering recommendations or can anyone help out ...thanks ..robbie

Hi mate, It sounds like youre throttle shaft seal has gone. In the top of the pump is a bush that the the shaft rotates in, also an O -Ring seal. Not an uncommon fault nor difficult to fix. My Friend replaces these  for a living and always takes the top off the pump. The repair kit is usually, shaft ,seal and bush. Any good diesel specialist can do this repair in situ in about an hour. :tappity:

ok,thanks mate.will get on to a local diesel company and see what they want .
