leak from fuel distibutor plunger

[urq]

... yes, the FD on my '88 5kCSQ was doing the same thing.  I am pretty sure
that the only effect was perhaps a reduction in fuel economy ... but perhaps
the OXS feedback loop might have even taken care of that ... :-)  I
understand that there is some sort of a rebuild kit available for the FD ...

    035 198 685 - Parts kit for metering valve
    035 198 691 - set of gaskets for fuel metering valve

... I have no idea what is in either of these kits includes ... as I had a
much more pressing problem to fix.  I suspect the gasket set is a set of
crush washers for the fuel lines ... and that the "parts kit" might have the
repair parts.  I also managed to pick up another metering valve from a
qlister that I am planning to use when I get to looking into the problem ...

HTH!
