This happens via the intake manifold. After the primer is used to coat the heater coil with diesel the diesel continues to flow very slowly into the manifold and eventually makes its way to the engine lubricant. This is a very expensive fault which would eventually damage the engine if the oil is not replaced. I would appreciate hearing from anyone else who has encountered this problem. I have fitted an on/off tap to the heater coil feed but a moment of forgetfulness ( to which I am very prone) and the engine oil has to be replaced. .

I have a different problem with our 4 cyl 35, the water flows out from the drain at the top of the radiator. Any ideas. Thanks Hi Great Site, lots of info.
