Hi guys,
Bit of a story with this one.
But now I'm stuck, need help please as I'm outta ideas.
2000 td5 discovery.
Started leaking water, looked like a good trickle dripping from the back of the engine, but couldn't pin point it. On inspection looked like the heater hose (inlet?) Had been bodged with a sleeve and jubilee clips, so replaced it, still leaking. So thought it must be the metal pipe from the oil cooler, so pulled it out and have replaced it. Still leaking. So with a torch and a mirror it looks like it might be from around the bulkhead side of the fuel pressure valve. Could it be here? Is the gasket between the frv to the block a water chamber? Is there any other water housings around here? I'm really getting rather desperate, but would love to repair this myself, rather then letting the garage empty my wallet.
Has any one had something similar in this area?
Thanks for your help
Steve
