Mine looked like that after I had installed the control (governor) collar backwards on the distributor piston. The pump built up too much pressure (even with the solenoid stop pin removed). It blew the seal right out. At least, that's what I think happened. I'm no diesel expert.thegimpster wrote:Here is a pic of the gasket. The little piece i had to get out of the pump w/ tweezers.
