Consumer Description

SEVERE DEEP CRACKS ALL AROUND THE PLASTIC COLLAR OF THE OUTPUT PORT OF THE SIEMENS HIGH-PRESSURE FUEL PUMP. FUEL LEAK IMMINENT, WHICH WOULD SPRAY FUEL ALL OVER THE ENGINE. IT'S COMPLETELY HIDDEN BY THE BODYWORK/FARING SO IT WAS LUCKY THAT I NOTICED IT WHILE SERVICING. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. *TR
