Hi Guys,
After spending the afternoon smiling with pride polishing my patrol, i changed the oil, and fuel has started dripping from the bottom of my fuel pump, it seems to be coming from the diamond shaped plate pictured, can someone clarify and suggest repair?
Thanks heaps guys,
(just about to head to frazer for a week need to get it fixed)

I'll take a stab and guess that the pump hasn't been re sealed to run low sulfur diesel fuel.
By all means replace the oring, but if it starts to leak again, take it and have it completely rebuilt. otherwise you will run in to more problems and end up spending alot of cash on it.
