GQ td42 weeping fuel pump

I have a '90 model and for a while now fuel has been weeping from the fuel pump top cover (just a weep not a major leak). Probably has something to do with change to cleaner diesel.

I remember a thread from some time ago where others had this problem and fixed it by replacing top cover seal- there ...

Thanks fellas. Just out of interest, how much did the wrecker hit you up for the bits? Was the GU box a straight bolt in?

Also, when I sort out the inlet, I'm going to fit an oil catch can to the breather to stop blow-by crap going thru turbo- can't be good for the turbo long term and I'm sick of ...
