I've got a diesel leak and the mechanic says it's coming from the fuel pump. Leak only happens with engine running or for a few minutes after switch off. It's gonna cost 'cos radiator and timing belt have to come off to remove pump. Anyone had this problem before? Could the leak be a seal under the pump? Before I give the go-ahead, as its a high mileage surf, do I go the whole hog and get pump refurbished/replaced plus new belt and radiator - the old one is just holding together with solder and will fall apart if removed! Or do I just get a seal kit for the pump? Notice that at acceleration there is a "dead" spot around 3000rpm - engine revs but power fades for a second or two - could this be related? Either way this is expensive and any advice most welcome!
