Hi Ray, it's your fuel pressure regulator that will be leaking.

J
Did everyone see that?  Because I will NOT be doing it again!

its quite a easy job to chage one if you have a few extension bars and a 1/4 socket set took me about a hour

If it's anything like mine it will get worse pretty quickly.......... and as a biker can I vote for as early a fix as you can manage?  2 wheels and diesel don't mix well..........

Easy job - ideally a twiddly uj on the socket for that third bolt!  Cheers, A
3 Defenders on and I'd still buy another.....
