Hey guys,
I've been getting some stalls on really cold starts with my 4M40. I did some research and it looks like the most common culprit is the front injection pump seal. I should also note that I am am also getting a leak of some type... It's a thin fluid, and I can't tell if it's fuel or antifreeze, so not sure if it's related. It only started occurring in the cold.
What are some things I can try before I get the seal replaced? Some people are saying to drain the fuel filter? Maybe I should just replace it entirely, since I don't really know the last time it was replaced... Anything else?
Does anyone know any diesel mechanics in Saskatchewan/Alberta/Mantibob that could do the pump seal replacement for me? Just looking for someone with experience.

I’m in the same boat
I have order the parts to do a IP seal, they are already in my possession. I have a shop that I trust and is willing to do it.
But we haven’t booked it in yet!
The Mitsubishi mechanically book says the job is 3 hrs!!
I’m not sure how that is possible very place I’ve been, says 7-9 hrs.
But that’s usually because they send it out to another shop that just does pumps I guess!

Hey Jerry
I’m using the guys at Heritage Auto Pro
Their mechanic did his apprenticeship in Japan and worked on many Mitsubishi’s,
And JDM imports.
I trust them to make it right.

We haven’t done it yet! I’m not in dire need right now. I’ll wait for the summer as I’m planning other upgrades and repairs.
