Hello, I have a old D2 3J Cat dozer. The dozer has sat for a
long time and I am getting it running. I got the pony running
real good and now working on the diesel. I threw some fuel in
it and checked the fuel filter and filled that tower up with
diesel. I put some air in the tank and began to turn over the
diesel with the pony motor and loosened the bleed screws on
the pump one at a time. I also cracked the line coming out of
the pump as well to get the air out the line lines. After I had
fuel there, I tightened the line back up and now it leaks. I'm
thinking that it's probably time for new injector lines, as I have
a hunch they were leaking when it was parked several years
ago. Any tips to try before I get new lines for it. Also, one
more thing if I do need new lines, where is a good place to get
parts? I have heard that caterpillar still has parts for them but I
haven't checked yet. Is that true though that they still have
parts for them? Thanks for your help in advance
