Jus bought me a 95 dodge 2500 auto 2wd cummins yesterday. All stock 159k on it only thing ive done so far is put on a 4 inch straight pipe adjust the idle and take the silencer ring out. I noticed the first time I test drove it it was dripping a lil bit but the guy said he sprayed the engine off so we figured thats what it was. But now that I got it home it's still leaking I thought I could see it leaking down the tranny when looking around the fuel filter. Jus wondering if there are any common leaks on these trucks or if you could point me in the right direction i've been looking at it for a while is jus haven't pin pointed it yet.

 

replace the samll rubber feed line hose behind the P-7100....its a pain to get to but proly rotten, make sure you use fuel rated hose

 

Yep. Take the fuel filter canister and mount off and it's right there.

 

Ok i'll go look at it what size line is it?

 

5/16 IIRC

 

Ok I think its leaking where it connects to the steel line this is low pressure though? How long of a piece should I buy?

 

A foot should be more than enough. Make sure the line is Diesel rated or you will be doing it again it short order. I was in a pinch when mine split (On vacation is North Carolina) I used EFI rubber line and it got me home.

 

Ok so it jus clamps on both ends

 

Yep. It's a rubber line between two steel lines. That's why it's easier to pull the whole filter canister off the head.

 

Found the line thats leakin this afternoon. Gonna need more like 2 foot of hose i'm guessing it's the return line back to the tank gonna be a pain in the butt to get to.
