Injector lines leak

SD diesels were widely available in the US in the 1981-86 Datsun/Nissan 720 pickups, and in Canada through '87 in the D21 pickup.

Injector lines leak

#1

Post by Gubernaculum »

1981 720 Std cab 98k miles.

Started leaking diesel from top of IP (where injector lines leave the pump). Bosch KiKi pump.

Is there "O" rings/gasket that can be replaced? If so source?

Stopped the leaking by tightening the joints that go into the pump but think they will start leaking again!!

Thanks in advance.

probably wont leak again. There is no "O" ring there but a tapered ball that is squeezed into a socket. As long as neither surface has a scratch or mark in them keeping them tight will stop the leak.
