Diesel Leak

[barnboy]

Hello

I have seen the threads about pump seals etc, but just want to be sure that is the cause or likely cause of my diesel leak. It is a pretty contstant drip, with a few minutes there is a small puddle.

I can see the diesel is dripping from somehwhere under the pump, but what ever angle I look, I can't see where it is coming from (with air con rad removed).

Should I just change the pump seals or are there any other that are common faults for leaks?
Thanks

Think it explains my problem- sorry for the false alarm, should have searched a bit longer

Just on the off chance, is there any veg oil in the tank?
Mine started leaking when I 80%+ the veg oil. It would stream out when cold, but hasn't lost a drop since stopping using it.

It used to run veg oil a year or so back before I got the truck, but just from the pump with me( although thinking veg oil may be going back in soon as 140/ litre is too much.

Thanks for your help though

Could be some truth in that at the moment- luckily I don't really follow it that much either.

Whats a Norfolk boy doing in Romania then? Never been there, but went a bit further over to the Ukraine for work this year and really want to go back, with the surf hopefully.
