I'm in Terrace BC looking for some assistance with a leak I have with my Delica.
Has anyone had this kind of problem and how can I rectify this problem.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I have the beginnings of a rear tank leak where the hose that connects with front tank joins - it is at the top-front of the tank. Is this the same location you speak of? Mine currently looks like a little wet patch on the tank and not enough to run down the side yet but will require attention in the very near future.
Don't want to hijack your thread but I noticed it the other day when I was groveling... I mean... looking under the van for any potential issues. The hose seemed quite brittle but likely an easy replacement. If this is the same problem as 4wdyvan's, it would be nice to find a Biodiesel compatible hose.
If this is a different problem, I will post it later on a separate thread.
Cheers!
Ian

Its leaking from the steel lines at the unit that bolts directly to the top of the rear tank. I'll try to post up a pic or 2 when I get a chance. Anyone know where I might be able to source that unit? It's a '92 Delica Exceed P35w, engine family 4d56. Any directions as where to go would be appreciated. Thanx

Had that issue with the front tank, Glen at Coombs country auto set me up for a great price. Saw a few tanks in his attic of Deli goodies.
