Kubota M7950DT Fuel Leak

[Avondale]

Neighbor has a Kubota M7950DT with fuel spraying out of what looks like a gasket on the right hand side of engine, to the rear. There is a shiny box with the word DELPHI embossed and in the upper left, a white gasket can be seen, (it has an un-even edge). Fuel sprays out at this gasket location. Has anyone any experience in changing this gasket? Is it something that needs a trained tech or is it pure and simple nut and bolt job? Any help is most appreciated.

Its a simple fix & less than 10.00.. Google CAV top cover leak & theres LOTS of videos on utube.. Delphi has bought out CAV..
The gasket # 7180-451
there ARE 2 FIBER WASHERS UNDER THE TOP COVER NUTS>5339-970
You may want to consider changing the 4 orings on the shafts too>7185-950
You might wanna check the return line going back to the tank and/or change the fuel filter.. it looks like a pressure build up problem..
GOOD LUCK & LET US KNOW HOW IT GOES..

Much thanks for the prompt reply. I will look into further once tractor is out of the field, (as soon as rain lets up). These things never seem to fail in the shop, eh?

Well, did the job today, stopped the fuel spraying out of top cover with the kit that came with gasket, four o-rings and two top cover nut/washers. I did it still fitted to the tractor and all went pretty good except for the hook lever trying to slip out of place. Ended up using some black thread looped around lever and out the top of block. When the cap was placed on and aligned,I pulled one end of thread until all came out the top. Seems to be working well. Thank You, again, for pointing me in the right direction, much appreciated.

Le voisin d'un Kubota M7950DT avec du carburant pulvérisé à partir de ce qui ressemble à un joint sur le côté droit du moteur, à l'arrière. Il y a une boîte brillante avec le mot DELPHI en relief et en haut à gauche, un joint blanc peut être vu (il a un bord irrégulier). Le carburant pulvérisé à cet endroit du joint. Quelqu'un at-il une expérience dans le changement de ce joint ? Est-ce quelque chose qui a besoin d'une technologie formée ou est-ce un travail pur et simple d'écrou et de boulon ? Toute aide est très appréciée.

j'ai emprunté une de vos photos pour mon problème sur mon tracteur savez-vous pourquoi vous n'avez rien de fixé sur ce dispositif ? moi c'est cela que est en trouble ..j'ai actionné cette tirette depuis la console et depuis mon moteur ne démarre plus...
