So my truck has been down for about a month now do to some leaks from fuel bowl and HPOP reservoir. Had some shipping issues, but Clay took care of me. So I am now stuck trying to figure out why the top cover is leaking. It was leaking from the right corner bolt so I replaced the gasket, then it started leaking from the 3rd bolt from the right. So, I replaced the gasket again after finding some cuts in it. Well, it is still leaking at the 3rd bolt now and I am going crazy. It is possible that I need to replace the top cover or is there some trick to getting it to stop?



This pick isn't mine, found it through Google. sorry if I offended the owner for using it.

 

I have been looking for a part number for the reservoir but can't find anything but 1831022C97. Is this the part number?

 

Has anyone ever tried using the high temp gasket glue stuff on the top cover?

 

I wouldn't, go to dieselorings.com they will have what you need.

 

I don't need a new gasket. The gasket is fine. Anyone know where to get a new reservoir?
