what the heck
 

Ok I got a 1991 f250 7.3 liter idi. And I got a good deal on it knowin it needed minor work. Well I got a new radiator on it alternator and batteries. Got it runnin like a top and the other day I went out and started it and its leakin diesel fuel from the fuel pump and the top of the motor. So my question is what would make it magically start doin that? Thanks

has truck been sittin for a while if so the return caps and hoses r probably your problem

It sit for a about a year

Sounds like you need to get a return line kit. Run you anywhere from $20-$50 and take 1-2 hours to install.

is that somethin i can get at autozone or advance

Bosch service centers carry them. PRO Tech Diesel, Glendive MT 59330 -- MerchantCircle.com

Give him (Joe Gillipse) a call for pricing. Yes, I know he's out of your state, but he's the only one I know of off hand. :tu:

yea replace all the rubber lines....they get old and rotted fast....... my current IDI motor sat in a junkyard for a little over a year.... the 4th time i started it, it just started leaking... replaces all the caps and rubber lines, fixed it....
