I have a D-3 Cat Dozer with an oil leak just under the Injection pump. I can't see exactly where it's coming from but it's a pretty bad leak(almost a steady stream). I don't have any manuals and this is my first Caterpillar machine. I read a reply post not long ago by BOB in Ontario ( I think that's his name)
He was telling someone to watch for a cracked Injection pump gear housing on the 3204 engine (79U). My machine is a 1974, best I can tell. Is there a specific problem area to look for on this? I am afraid to remove the pump before I know exactly where the leak is coming from. There is some kind of small steel line with an elbow just underneath the pump, coming from the block. It looks like it may be an oil line coming from or going to the Injection pump and the leak looks like its comings from this area. Any idea's would be appreciated, thanks
