I’ve got 2 injector pipe leaks, it appears to be coming from above the top but, ( lister petter 3 cyl engine ).
I’ve taken the top cover off and this is what you can see, ( hopefully in pic ).
How do I remove what’s here to get to where the pipe joins on.
If no pic appears please click on link above

WOW, is the connection down inside there somewhere?
If so its a shitty idea. Have you been able to Google search a workshop manual yet?
Gunna be a lot of fun to get to that part. Are you ale to get a spanner on the nut to see if it is loose or not?

Not gone any further yet, trying to work out if I have to remove the complete head or not to get to it.

Looking at a manual I found online it says about using a slide hammer to remove the injector, is that ever right?
If so where do you get the correct fitting for the slide hammer.

I would say the answer is yes you would require a slide hammer, use the injector pipe to identify the thread and buy a connector of the same thread then weld it to a piece of metal that will fasten to your slide hammer. :thumbup:
