I understand that Brickwerks, Bernd Jaeger, et all, get their new LDAs from Dieselkontor, so they are all currently out of stock.
Dieselkontor sell a refurb kit for these LDAs which is still quite pricey, but there are cheaper versions available on eBay. I can't vouch for either of these as we've gone for a secondhand replacement until stock of the new LDAs starts coming through again.

Re: Diesel leak - JX1.6td
PS You're pushing it to sustain 70 mph on a JX on standard gearing. We're normally hitting around 65 mph at 3000 rpm, which is where you want to cap your revs if you're looking for your engine to last.

Thanks Clift. 65 it is and will keep a lookout for a secondhand LDA

Re: Diesel leak - JX1.6td
This looks just like the problem I have at the moment.
Its hard to see but I think the majority of the oil is coming from the advance cable that goes in the back of the injection pump
I'm gonna try and replace this seal and might as well do the LDA seal at the same time.
I see the LDA seal is on Brickwerks site but the advance seal isn't so I take itll be in the VE injection pump seal kit that they sell
Regards
Billy
