Problems caused by diesel leaking on the Iveco Daily.

Model: IVECO Daily MK 2 - Years 1989-2000
Part: Checks and maintenance

This video is very interesting because it shows us the problems that dirty diesel can create on the engine of an Iveco Daily: despite the fuel being heavily contaminated with algae and dirt, the vehicle managed, albeit with difficulty, to bring the YouTuber home. In this case, the first thing to do is to act on the tank and disconnect the pipes, detach the float, clean the bottom of the tank and remove the fuel: the pre-filter that was installed shows some dirt deposits, then we blow into the pipes, both the supply and return ones. The vehicle we see in the video is quite "old", because if it had been of a more modern design, diesel in that condition would have destroyed the pump and injectors. However, we need to clean the diesel filter, unscrewing it and cleaning it, then clean the strainer inside the tank (where we find some real filth) and then reassemble it inside the tank. So let's never run on reserve and be very careful where we refuel: only quality diesel.
