[Vwdiesel] Leak found !!

[Nate Wall]

You can get the replacement copper washer at most
Bosch authorized ingection pump shops. I get mine for
about a buck each at my local one. Bentley mentions
the torque spec, and I always adhere to it. You can
tighten it a little and see if that helps. Or remove
the washer, file it flat on both sides, clean off the
filings and re-install. That should stop the leak.
