Has anyone had a problem with the front of the KSB leaking from the nut? If so does anyone know where i can get the o-rings to fix it. I have called Dodge and Cummins and they dont have it. I even called a place that rbuilds the Bosch VE pumps and they had never heard of a KSB valve.
If the shop that rebuilds VE IP's has not heard of a KSB...then i definitely would not be having them work on my stuff!
As for the KSB leaking. I can not recall ever coming across anyone with this issue before. Not to say it doesn't happen, but clearly not a very common issue.
I would remove the nut, and pull out the O-ring. Then go down to an industrial supply house and see if you can match up the O-ring. Then re-assemble.
Ok. Ya they said they have never heard of it. If i look up reman pumps, the KSB in installed on the pump.
Ya there are people that discuss this issue on other diesel forums.
It;s a good thing you have the year of your truck in your profile. . . . .

Not the point Kev. We went through this already remember? Show us the year, mods and trans. That's why this thread sat so long. That and I am tired of trying to pry info out of everyone.

We think @Polaraco is also.Originally Posted by Kevin_gearhead
He is saying if you have a problem but don't have anything listed as far as vehicle info how will people help you?
I have a ‘89 1st. Gen & Just located the source of my hopefully last fuel leak & it appears to be the same as you described. Best I can tell with my welding mirror is it’s coming from the front bolt / nut whichever it is on the radiator end of the KSB body & dripping onto the power steering pump & running down to the vacuum pump. This was after I installed my newly rebuilt original starter, to replace the one from Oreilly’s that lasted MAYBE 50 cycles before it took a dump ! Made in China crap ! Oh well, it got me back from my trip anyway.
