If the throttle shaft bore is worn, a new seal often won't correct the leak... you might need to bush the bore and then install the new seal.

Don't forget to check the throttle shaft itself for wear in the seal area.

it looks like it is leaking from everywhere. the spring on the throttle shaft is full of fuel. fuel is mostly running down and dripping of the manual shut off lever. i am sick of this i just want my truck to run with out leaking fuel. i have been dealing with this for about 2 mouths

Good - the best way to repair a problem is to observe it happening...

Thoroughly clean/dry the fluid from the engine and surroundings.

Start the truck (maybe a helper can do this) and immediately watch for where the diesel is leaking from first - drips, sprays, moisture or whatever.

Once you located the problem, fix as needed.

Let us know what you find...
