MEP-803A injector leak

[rcamacho]

Looks like there is an external diesel leak originating from the injectors. Lines look ok, no leaks. Are there o-rings or other serviceable seals?

Howdy,
Look closer, it's probably the fuel return line. They weep fuel after some heating cycles and age.

Looks like the high pressure lines not the return. Degreased and lightly pressure washed. Retightened the high pressure line fittings.

They are metal to metal for a seal. Usualy nothing happens but they could be loose or have got dirt between the mateing surfaces.

Unless one of the fittings is cracked

One of the high pressure lines was not fully tightened. I’ll evaluate if the flares are cracked on next startup.

Ran the generator for 2 hours yesterday. No apparent leaking over the injector area anymore.
