    leaking injector harness, Is it repairable?

    Hi,
    My first post after recent purchase of 2000 build Td5. I have got to know it fairly quickly, 2nd day of ownership required new radiator, promptly followed by leaking fuel heater, followed by leaking bleeder valve (just a bolt in top hose).
    Have finally stopped the loss of coolant! Next is the plug under rocker cover filling with oil Is it possible to seal the harness or must it be replaced?

    Also I often have small misfire in the warm up period but then seems ok?

    Any ideas. Thanks Jo

    its repairable but..

    the amount of effort involved in washing out then sealing up an old harness when a new on is less than $150 from M R Automotive its not worth the time or effort repairing the injector side of the harness. (washing out the ECU side is definately worth the effort tho)

    ITs a DIY job that takes about an hour and theres numerous threads that cover it in detail.
