This is not bus related but someone might know the answer. Where should I look if I am getting fuel down in the oil pan? It is a 3 cyl John Deere backhoe. Thanks, Bruce |

If the injectors are externally mounted I would suspect that the front seal on the injector pump is bad. |

If I'm not mistaken, it's usually the front seal in the injector pump, just behind the drive gear. |

there is a small mechanical transferr pump mounted on the side of the engine.... in addition to the injection pump.....sometimes it leaks also.....this pump is what delivers fuel to the injection pump.... |

Doesn't the lift pump have a weep hole in it? Unless it is packed with dirt it should let the fuel drip to the ground if the diaphram leaks. |

it should.. and the injection pump, if its a roosamaster or stanadyne(sp0, will have double seals... 1 to keep oil in from the engine and 1 to keep fuel in from the pump... this might be a double lipped seal or 2 seals back to back... i"m guessing... havent seen this particular engine... |
