Found fitting where line from third stage filter goes into injection pump leaking (leaking at pump to fitting threads). It screws into the pump the line connects to the side and has a small copper tube connected to the top of it. Where could ONE source this part? I could unscrew it but am dreadfully afraid that it may be cracked(or cross threaded) and being that the tractor is running makes me think it would be a bad idea not knowing where i could get a replacement from. Any advice or ingenuity would be appreciated. 801b should make it a germanbosch. [Reply]   [No Email]
