Hi Mike,

I've have a good bit of experience with the D24. You say that it's leaking just to the left of the fuel filter on what I assume you mean the driver's side, which is where the filter and injection pump are. I'm kinda confused as to where exactly you're seeing the leak, but if it's anywhere under the IP, then you probably have a leaky gasket at the high pressure pump head or a shaft seal at the rear of the IP (fuel will be found toward the rear of the engine in relation to the filter).

Your car does not have an in-tank lift pump. Make sure that your fuel lines are clamped tight, your filter is screwed on tight and not clogged, and that there is no fuel leaking at any of the fuel pipes or injectors.

Does it start well? Have you run biodiesel in it before?

We'll get this thing running for you ;)

Charlie
