Lucas cav pump leak

[Lyntransit]

Hi my transit pump is leaking underneath i put .y hand down and it's behind a component with a spring at the rear of it. It seems.s it's leaking past the spring. I have took a video of it but don't know how to post it.ive entered a pic it's the part worn nut on the end. It's at the rear of that and has a spring at the back of it. Any help would be grateful

Hi thanks for advice. It would be ideal if I could get someone in the Leicester area to possibly have a look and fix it for me. I'm OK with basic stuff but diesel isn't my thing lol . So a big shout out for anyone who could help. Thanks lyn

It is awkward, but can be done without pump removal.
Advance housing is held on by 2 bolts underneath.
Put a container underneath, first, to catch the diesel that will leak out,

Unclip the plastic rod and unscrew the large nut, used to come as a replacement kit from Lucas

Hi thanks. Does the fuel selonoid just un scew and refit new one? Also the two bolts just unscrew to expose gasket?. Cheers

This parts diagram is very useful for understanding how pump goes together

Yes simply unscrews and fit replacement which used to come fitted with seals etc

Hi does the selonoid hold fuel because it looks like it's coming from that. To the left of that selonoid ( as you look at it straight on ) there is a bolts that if put paper towel around it it slows the drip down. Unless it's got a washer that's broke and it's spraying fuel onto selonoid making it look like it's the selonoid. When I brought the van a nd started it up I did notice it dripping fuel but it stopped after about 2 mins so got it cheaper and now it's constant drip. Teach me lol

I did ring the. And they said take pump off and take it to them for refurb. I e got the tools just need someone to tell me how to remove it. Timing etc. Cheers

I've ordered the bits ie plunger. Advance o ring and housing gasket. Got one bolt out the 19mm but other one is a b### to get on. Is it a different size ?

[Lyntransit]

Hi fitted new plunger. Sel and gasket but still leaking. It's not from the gasket. It seems still coming from back of housing where plunger fits. I fitted new rings around the big nuts at back a few front. Is there anything that can cause the leak from plunger end ?thanks

[Lyntransit]

Hi what can make fuel out of plunger end ?on the exploded diagram there is something between spring and plunger i haven't got that bit and its not listed but I can't see why it leaks from plunger. The only thing I've noticed is the piston is worn. I've noticed advance housing and piston on sites does it matter if I fitted that ? As long as its from a dps. Wish it was easy. Cheers
