Diesel Leak


hissing sid

Recommended Posts

2001 "Y" reg Freelander TD4ES.

Have just discovered a bad fuel leak from a connection just under the Engine electronic control module. It was coming from this connector which I have now pushed back together.

What I want to know is? Will it happen again? Is this a common problem with TD4s and if it is, is it easy to replace this connection? and if so, How?

I will put a photo on and the connection is right in the middle of the photo.

Any help appreciated.

Looks like someone's been b*ggering about with that, I'm fairly sure they don't have a jubliee clip like that from the factory, and the wiring has a suspicious lump of sparky tape on it...

That pipe is not happy, it's bulging, which could be due to the jubliee being over-tight and not being a proper fuel pipe type clip, or could be because the pipe is unhappy and delaminating / going soft.
