Diesel Fuel in the Valley

[dthollis1961]

Bill,

My recently acquired 84 FC35 was filling up the valley and running
down onto the ground. With lights, mirrors and standing on my head,
I couldn't see where the leak was and was ready to pull the pump. I
saw some dampness on some of the 8 lines that run from the pump to
the injectors and didn't think that was the problem, but tightened
them anyway. Problem solved.
