Djs87 Posted Saturday at 03:30 PM Share Posted Saturday at 03:30 PM Hello I’m new to the forum, I apologize in advance if I’m in the wrong category. I’m restoring a 1987 r688 and the engine is an e6. The cam covers on the side of the block are leaking. Does the injector pump have to be removed to replace the gaskets. Thank you for the help Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75933-1987-r688-oil-leak/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Joey Mack Posted Saturday at 08:23 PM Popular Post Share Posted Saturday at 08:23 PM I think you will need to take the fuel lines off. And stock up on patience for the rear cover. Mech, and fjh, and terry and..... Will know the best way to do it.. 2 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75933-1987-r688-oil-leak/#findComment-582257 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fjh Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago Front for sure ! You might be able to do the rear with out! I advise using silicone instead of a gasket also a dab on each bolt ! just me! 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75933-1987-r688-oil-leak/#findComment-582331 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Djs87 Posted 17 hours ago Author Share Posted 17 hours ago I’m located in central NJ might be far fetched but is there anyone who would be able to pull the pump and reinstall it for me as I’ve never done an injector pump myself on this engine? Obviously I would pay for the service Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75933-1987-r688-oil-leak/#findComment-582345 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago I bet its an Ambach pump. Pull the pump. There should be a roll pin in the Pump drive coupler that only allows the pump to go back on in one way. When the pump is pulled, do not rotate the engine... 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75933-1987-r688-oil-leak/#findComment-582349 Share on other sites More sharing options...
