Diesel leak

[Leigh]

My 110 has developed a slow leak. For about 5 mins after stopping and turning the engine of there is a slow drip from the fuel tank area. Could this be a fuel return pipe and is it an easy job to do? Just running the tank down before I start

Thanks in advance

It depends on the pipe connections, if they are rubber  hoses with clips on, no probs

It may be worth while cleaning the area aroudn the tank/sender unit to check for a leak from a seal too

If you have a piece of plastic pipe that has perished/split or chafed, you can cut out the bad bit and replace with a section of rubber fuel hose

check the sender seal too

Thanks guys, as soon as the tank is empty I'll take a look and probably have a new seal and hose ready.
Are there any surprises I should know about lowering the tank? Is it simply a case of unbolting and lowering or are there other things needed disconnecting?

Cheers
