Fuel Injection Pump

Post by wooddashman.com »

:( My fuel injection pump is leaking from a bolt at the very top of the pump. Triangular in shape and rounded on the points of the triangle. Pump also seems to leak from a seam between the lower and upper portions of the pump. Can these be repaired on the vehicle? Or am I subjected to buying a reman?

Do you have a picture of the pump? We could probably help you better if we could see the bolt you are describing. In terms of the leak between the sections, you probably just need a new gasket, but I am not sure how easy these are to get and or install. Post the pic, you might get some more help that way.
