“Liquid Intelligence 229 Will Fix Diesel Fuel Pump Leaks by Swelling and Softening And Rejuvenating Nitrile Fuel Pump Seals. Guaranteed.”

So does Biodiesel!
Try a tank of B99 first- cheaper, and won't make Robert Bosch spin in his grave.

Cant get b99 where I live
Already tried automatic transmission fluid, it didn't work

Might work but it'll prolly only be temporary. Probably a solvent that the seals absorb which then cooks out and they shrink again.

I don't know if your magic elixir will work since I don't know anything about your pump. Maybe yes, and maybe no.

One thing is for certain: a new seal kit and the special tool you'd need to do that job is less than than the magic fluid. If the main shaft seal is the one that is leaking, then magic fluid won't do it. And if it is the usual culprits leaking, then you are better off with new seals anyway.

But, have a go, and let us know how it is doing. Also, check to see if the hose leading to the coolant recovery tank is OK or if leaking diesel has degraded that hose. It is the smaller one coming off a metal stub below the distribution line end of the injection pump.

Cheers,

Good attitude for a newb looking for help.

If you read his post it tells you what and where the line is but you have to read it, not just look at it.

I only asked one question (anyone used this product)?
I know where the pump is leaking & how to fix it
I am not mechanically incompetent
That's the reason I got the attitude

I've never heard of this product before. I know my neighbor tried some type of compound that was supposed to repair a cracked head on his sons VR6 Jetta. Didn't work.


We have no idea of your mechanical abilities, usually when someone asks a question about a product like this it's because they have no mechanical competence or they just don't want to do the work necessary to fix the problem.


Most of us would just get a seal kit and reseal the pump. Or find a used pump and swap it out. There is a write up in the TDI 101 section on how to do just that if your'e interested.


As PH pointed out any time diesel leaks onto rubber coolant hoses it eats them away to the point of failure.


My personal thinking is that it may help for a short time but then in a month or two you'll be right back where you are now. However keep us updated, we'd like to know if it works.

I do way too much reading on these forums and I've never heard of any stop leak for an injection pump. In general these solutions often don't work and can cause damage. We understand why you're researching this solution. IPs are darn expensive.
