I've goT diesel pouring out the back of engIne. It almost looks like it's leaking near the T but isn't. The bolt on back of head isn't leaking. Wtf

 

[Off-road]

the banjo bolt on the rear, the tee, or the lines themselves are the usual suspects.

Filter drain open?

 

[jleippi]

Is there anything else could it be the return lines in the head all I did was remove the lifting lug (the peice for engine removal ). Tightened the tee lines a bit.

 

[Off-road]

perhaps there is a freeze plug that is held in by that bracket?

 

[jleippi]

It's leakingg beside and above the tee. All I did was remove lifting lug and replace bolts.

 

[jleippi]

Also replaced 1 crossover tube o ring. Maybe used wrong size ?

 

[jleippi]

I used a slightly smaller o ring on crossover tube thought it was a cummins parT. Doh

It must be where you were working..if trk runs it must be on the return side.
Should be EZ to see?

If you used the wrong o-ring, maybe???
Also check no. 6 injector fitting.
If it s bad, dry it off and watch it while running with a flashlight.

Crossover tube o-ring would leak internally. I would begin by buying correct o-rings and 6 banjo sealing washers and T fitting grommets from Cummins. Pull the return line, seal crossover tubes and be done. Pull the return line before ordering parts to make sure it isn't cracked.

If the stock pump and filter are in the way, throw them away and get a FASS. Now you have no leaks and 2 washers as spares that may never be needed which means no leaks!!!

Order a gasket for the plate that the stock filter mounts to. It will save you from learning about "boost boot".

use a solvent like brakekleen or ether to dry the area. Be sure its WELL ventilated! Use a mirror to see EXACTLY where the fuel is coming from. Fix accordingly.

If your cylinder head return tube is damaged, I have a spare.

It was a incorrect o ring used on a crossover tube. It looked close but it has to be exactly the right one

 

[Yankneck696]

OK, cool...
