Archived Leaky Fuel Heater

[R Piazza]

I have a 1998 12 valve with a leaking engine fuel heater. I have had it apart once cleaned and reinstalled it with no leaks for two days. Can you buy just the gasket? Any sugestions to correct the problem would be greatly appreicated.





Thank You R Piazza

Take it off and leave it off. You don't need the fuel heater. It is probably not working at all anyway. The most likely leaking place is the electrical connection. If the element inside burns up the electical pins get hot cause the connector to leak at the hot pin.
