I am looking at purchasing a MF 3165 diesel. It starts right up, runs good, no smoking, just appears to be leaking a lot of fuel from the injectors and maybe the pump? I wasn't sure if the injectors maybe needed tightened a little or if there were o-rings that needed replaced. Is this common, or should I stay away from this? The people seemed honest and not as if they were trying to hide anything, and all its been used for most of its life was mowing fields and roadsides. It is the Industrial 3165 version which means it has the non adjustable heavy duty front axle, which I liked, as well as a nice working PTO, just wondering if I should be worried about this fuel leak...I didnt copy down the serial #, so not sure of the yr. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!
