Hdi estate - fuel leak
#8
No problem. Peugeot changed the tank breather system sometime in 2000 and introduced this problem I seem to remember, mine is 2001. If your car is older, I can get the other image but you shouldn't be having this. I stripped a 99 hdi and it was different.

Pull your access grommet out for the lp fuel pump and you might see the tank is wet on the side like mine in the pics.

Seriously, thanks very much, this has peed me off big time as all I have done lately is work on cars!
This was potentially one of those things that may have been beyond my patience, but actually looks pretty easy.

Ha, my hands look as bad as yours do in the pics!

I'm wearing gloves lol! Usually do but not always.

No worries, I know how annoyed I was when I found the stain under my car in the works carpark originally, was very frustrated as I do a lot of commuting, so 40 litres limit kept me visiting the pumps more often. You can use the rep system under peoples posts if you want to thank people. ThumbsUp

Sean, filler elbow is easy, you can just manhandle the neck which only had a Couple of nuts. Elbows appear on Ebay as Peugeot old stock (clicky, you just need two jubilee clips as Peugeot use those crap ones that rust badly. Before and after pics in my rallye project thread, common on the petrols to go there but not seen a diesel do it, mine is still on the original. Edit, they've put their prices up a bit it seems - only £36.08 inc vat from Peugeot now 1505 YX, though still good value if you are a way from a Peugeot dealer.
