engine oil infecting td5 ecu "under the seat"

(1/2) > >>

paul rendall:
it would seem engine oil is being forced through the injector loom,all the way to our ecu plug under the drivers seat.we know the loom starts inside the rocker cover,does anyone know if loom replacement will cure the problem,or is there an underlying engine breather fault????

  any help would be much appreciated.

Porny:

theres a seal in the plug the passes into the rocker cover  from the main loom but as ive never seen 1 with oil all the way to the ecu i cant give a definite answer,however in tor a couple of months ago there was a wee bit bout that prob,will go n have a look for the mag n post back here

I had that problem on my Discovery.  Replacing the part of the loom which runs into the injectors solved the problem.  You can replace the whole loom, but it's more difficult, and there's not much point - the oil left in the loom won't do any harm.

I don't think there's a permanent repair.  It may happen again;  but then, it may not.
