Disco 2 Fuel leak

Can you tell from this picture ?

meego · Dec 30, 2023

Is it coming from the fuel line on the left of the photo ? Is the line touching the chassis and has rubbed through ?? It’s hard to tell from the photo. The housing looks dry though, unless it’s wet at the back where we can’t see it.

Tank looks damp - could be the green pipe on top.

I think it is a pipe.

Another job for repair work.

Looks like an expensive week soon.

Pump primed this morning as well.

Will email mm and book it in

Isn't it a common issue where the fuel line above the tank rubs through. Had it on mine once and it ****ed fuel everywhere.

I have a new housing, filter not holed.

Can't do much at moment as still recovering from eye surgery plus the dreaded long covid.

Is there diesel all over the passenger side of the tank or chassis too?

MJI · Dec 30, 2023

Will check later

MJI · Dec 30, 2023

Right side only

MJI · Dec 30, 2023

Will call on Tuesday to book it in.

Seems I can use RAC recovery to get it there.

MJI · Jan 2, 2024

Booked in next Wednesday

RAC man had a look while I operated the ignition.

You can get to it without a major strip out. Take off the trim threshold at the rear door opening. Lift the carpet from the middle and pull the sides out from underneath the side panels. That lets you into the round cover plate.

Local specialist will be doing it, not allowed to get any dirt in my eye as recent surgery

I have a flap in carpet anyway
