I have only disassembled this one cylinders fuel delivery line and am reluctant to take anything else apart else I fix this tractor to death. I saw no washer anywhere.
once again sorry for the rotation, not sure what controls that. the leak is from the larger thread end. I ordered o rings from McMaster carr and am considering some permatex form a gasket #3 for the threads. curious to hear what those with lots more time doing this than me have to say
thanks
no need to shout, there is a black rubber ring shaped item above the threads which screw into the fuel injector pump body. it may not seal anything but i would not know what to call it but an o ring. i will post a pic when i get home tonight, maybe we are not talking about the same part. i assure you it is not the fuel line, when the engine was running i blew away all fluid with my compressor and could clearly see the fuel seeping from the junction of the barrel assembly/injector pump housing.
wow replace the whole thing for a small part leaking that is a bitter pill. any suggestion for sealing the threads on the barrel/plunger. I will try to get a new o ring but don't have much hope there. some sort of thread sealant maybe
tip of screwdriver points to area where fuel is leaking, sorry for the rotation could not resize or change pic
no the leak is definitely coming from below the hard line/ferrule/nut point. it is coming from the injector housing side of the nut below the ferrule nut. when I took it off it reminded me of a close nipple, one end received the ferrule the other went over something that looked like a spring plunger and there was something which to me looked like an o ring I will try to post a picture
