deisel leaking-4520 open station

rollbar · Apr 30, 2012

I have a 2005 4520 cut jd. after getting off of it the other day noticed it was leaking deisel
from the fuel tank( I think !) the green shroud that fits up to the hood and wraps around under the steering wheel and back to other side seemed to be where it was coming from.
you could push lightly on the plastic cover and deisel would increase flowing, it was slowly
streaming behind the cover. I had just put about 6 gal. of deisel in and was wondering if there is a overflow tube that it might be coming out of behind the shroud . it seems that there wouldn't be anyway the tank itself could have a hole in it being behind this cover.
after it sits for a little bit turned off it finally quits. any ideas ? thanks for any response

There are four hose lines coming from the tank, including one from the spill-over tray. Might need to isolate them one at a time to rule them out as the cause for the leak.
