trickydicky:
i notised a leak from the front of the engine at the start of the week when i got around to looking it is diesel leeking from the cambelt drain hole has anybody got any advise please

extreme90:
is it deffo diesel ?
if it is, it'll beleaking from the front seal on the injector pump at a guess

extreme90:
actaully, thinking about it....if its a 200....it could be water aswel

trickydicky:
its definitely diesel. i thought is was the pump as well anybody know were i can get a seal from. is there any pipes going back from the pump to the tank that may be blocked causing extra pressure on the seals? P.S its a 2.5td engine i wish it was a 200

LeanneNCharlie:
hi mate. its definately diesel. the front seal on the injector pump will be leaking. it will need sorting asap. i missed this problem on ours and it turned the cam belt in to a soggy sponge which eventually snapped and cost us a full engine rebuilt.

you can get a front seal from Sewells of leeds. there only a couple of quid and usually have them on stock.

hope this helps, charlie.
