Default Diesel leaks, pump help

Hello guys I have a problem since I bought my 760 84/D24T
The pump leaks some diesel, if I turn the key and the glowplugs work, leaks by the plastic thingy. When I turn off the car continues leaking a little bit. It is not a catastrophic leakage because mileage is 35 miles per gallon, but I want to fix it.

Here you can see this plastic thing and you can see a drop waiting to fall


Here is a general picture of the engine

Do you have any ideas what would be the problem?

Thanks, sorry for my English

today I got the plastic tap out, and I see something like a valve, and the leaking begins as bubbles of air mixed with diesel.
I have another fault, my brick has two diesel tanks, and there must be a bad union or pipe between both, because when I fill the tank and the second tanks begin to fill leakes diesel. so I only fill one tank (half gauge)
could it be related?

Thats not too bad of a fix. You will need the Bosch VE pump gasket kit, a few people on Ebay sell them if you dont have a diesel pump shop around you. The gasket kit part number is DGK-121.

Here is a link with good pictures and write up on replacing the o-rings that are leaking. You will have to take the lid off your pump to do it.

http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/d....html?t=153154

This is a cummins VE pump, but its the almost the same pump with a couple different looking outer parts. Either way, the afc housing is the same thing. The gasket kit does everything from the 4cyl vw VE pumps up to the 6 cyl cummins pumps.

Hope this helps.

Jason

well, i have the pump in my desk, and there are some parts very different, and good for us, the 3200 spring does not exist
so is easier to get it out.
I am taking pictures, and will post them in a separate post.

The man who sold me the gasket kit, told me
man ARE YOU GOINGG TO DO IT BY YOURSELF?
me: How much do I need to pay you to do it?
man: 300€ (450$)
me: YES, me and my son, 1 years old.

My little red neck heart was hurted, maaan I am gonna fix my caaar!
