Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    apologies in advance for lack of technical know how😳. I have a small but annoying fuel leak which seems to be coming from a bolt which is nearly impossible to get at due to where it's positioned on the pump, has anyone had this problem,and is there any tool out there that will tighten this bolt?

    get something like this and grind two of the square sides of the hole so they are round-ish :

    It's probably tight - there is a little O-ring on it that might be failing/ failed already

    it needs to be really clean around there before you go at it - if any tiny bit of grit falls in it will wreck the pump

    it might fall apart as you take it out

    thanks gctest50, the leak seems to be coming from the hexagonal bolt next to the 004 mark(in the picture posted)even if i could get a spanner on it,it's only millimeters away from the cover of the timing belt so won't thread out.
