Hi guys,
I am having a diesel leak back problem - if left overnight the diesel will dissapear back into the fuel tank. When primed you can clearly hear the fuel being sucked back up to the priming bulb after a few pumps and then see it going through the white feul lines after a few more pumps then into the high pressure diesel pump.
I've spotted and hopfully fixed a suspisious tee-piece on the common rail as the source where i believe air was entering the system. (poured hot water on the tube and pushed it all the way onto the tee as it was slightly hanging off)
It is still doing it. So I have heard of the simple inline non-return valve trick - Sounds logical, where is the best place for it? 10mm near the priming bulb or 6mm going to the diesel pump? or both or somewhere else. or don't bother? lol..
I've also ordered 20 mini 6mm clips for the feul line connections on the feul common rail - I know this may be overkill but I want this fixed! lol and its pennies.
