Diesel Fuel Leak when Tank is over Half Full

Post by Allchemist »

Hello everyone,

My converted to Diesel 1991 Syncro has Fuel Leak when Tank is over Half Full. My mechanic who installed the engine is looking everywhere for the parts needed to fix this. At least it's not dangerous like a gas leak. He says I need a diesel filler grommet for a diesel syncro. gasket/D=57,5mm/245-248 and gasket/64mm/251-256

Does anybody no where to find these? Help! :run

I think they're the body types, not the Part Nos themselves.. which gaskets?

Is it the filler pipe to tank (round doughnut black rubber) gasket

What is the body type, van or pick-up

Doka 251 201 139 (84mm)
Van 251 201 139A (64mm)

About £15 from VW, if not deleted part

Cannot see a 57,5 mm item as gasket.. :|
Might have one, or Classic Parts might?
