Of course you know that you have two hydraulic pumps. Which pump have you removed??

I had the same problem last year - fluid leaking past the seal into the fuel injector pump and on into the crankcase. The seal looked ok at the time. For 2200 psi I don't think a visual inspection would suffice.

My B7200 did the same thing last year and I replaced the seal and it did nothing. I ended up replacing the pump. Some where about $500.00. But it fixed the problem.:D Dusty

In my case I was getting very blue fluid coming out the oil overflow when I had put in very brown oil. Plus the hydraulic reservoir was frequently empty. Same as above, seal looked ok but had to replace entire pump. This on the d750 engine.
