Has any one had a water leak on a td42 on the plate between engine block and water pump its not coming from the themostat housing or the ruber o ring between thermostat and water pump its leaking on right hand side of timing gear housing just to the right of injector pump on the top in the corner any help would be good also water pump is ok
Dont realy want to pull whole of the front of motor to bits unless i really have to
Cheers
Kev

Chuck some Bar's stop leak in it and see what happens. Maybe just a gasket starting to weep. bar's will fix it for a while.

Thanks guys
checked up and there is 3 o rings in timming gear housing so got some stuff from repco called one shot bronze stop leak put it in left it running for 15 mins and no more water leak so will see how it goes was not a big leak just seeping a bit but all good for now if it does it again will pull all front down
Just hope no water has got into the oil by draining into the sump
