Fuel leak i have a rover 200 2.0 litre turbo deisel car which has a fuel leak but only seems to leak when the car is jacked up or moving from a stationary postion how could i resolve this problem without buying a new fuel tank??
i've checked all the fuel system and the only place i can see the leak is at the tank but its the pipe thats leaking from what i can see its a piece off plastice tubing thats connects the fuel line from the tank to the other half of the pipei've checked all the fuel system and the only place i can see the leak is at the tank but its the pipe thats leaking from what i can see its a piece off plastice tubing thats connects the fuel line from the tank to the other half of the pipe

Check the flexible tube between the tank and the filler cap and the outlet hose from the tank. It's probably a slow drip which means it's leaking all the time though.

reduced engine performance may be a sign that fuel is not getting through to the pump properly i would first change fuel filter then check for small leaks drawing air rather than losing fuel then finally the dreaded check the pump or pumps themselves
The fuel pump is located under the turbo on that truck. It is most likley washing sediment/old fluids out of the vally of toyr engine. It is also driven by a push rod that ths cam drives, so the lower pump o-ring may be leaking too. You can change the fuel pump without pulling the turbo. Good Luck
You should have the compression checked to see if the cylinders are in good shape. When a deisel starts to use oil, it burns it as it would fuel. The mot test is o/k because your emission system is working well. Hope this helps.Moe
The fuel system is a drive by wire and there is no accellerator cable.Check the plug going into the injector pump and clean,there is probably water here stopping the correct voltage to the throttle pump spool.
i have a 97 1.4 civic and i get about 280 miles from a 38 litre tank.has the car been serviced?is the oil level low?jack the car up and make sure all wheels turn freely,if not then the brakes are binding and the car has to pull harder to move,using more fuel.are your tyre pressures low?do you drive it hard?
do not understand you what you mean. assuming your car was ok before you changed f/filter you need to bleed the fuel system of air. esiest to do would be to loosen fuel line at the injectors and have assistant crank the engine while you observe for clear fuel leak without any air bubbles from fuel line.tighten fuel lines and start engine. might have to repeat a few times. good luck.
