Fuel pump leak seriously thinking of getting rid

[BAV1]

AS NOT DOING MY MARRIAGE ANY GOOD

does any one know what size this nut is in the pic and which way it tightens and what size o ring is required and can i just take the "bolt" out without disturbing other seals WILL TRY NIPPING IT UP FIRST

spent way to muc money getting the pump reconditioned a few year back and fear this may be the final straw as cant afford these maintenance bills in this climate

mines had a full seal kit and still dribbles out there.. really annoying - but iirc that bit doesnt have its own seal...

looking at the write up here http://www.toyotasurf.asn.au/techsite/fuelpump.htm

looks like it may have an O ring

wouldnt mind but spent nearly a grand getting it reconed missus is not impressed

did you manage the seal kit without removing the pump

You have to remove the top plate (and replace that seal as well) to do the speed sensor o ring, as it's on the inside.

mmm ok cheers mate so is this the spped sensor that may explain the other problem i have with gears

[TonyN]

Yeah, you need to get those o-rings seperately. I think the repair kit is only available for a non-efi pump, which dosn't have a speed sensor.

Steve, it shouldn't still leak, I need to fix it for you if its not right. Maybe put the wrong size o-ring on, or pinched it refitting it, what ever its no big deal to put right.

Like Nev said, you undo the nut (its has locking tab), remove the lid, pull connector back through the lid and you can then change the o-ring.

cheers guys can it be done easy enough without taking pump out

do you know what size o rings and what size nut


and could this be giving me my gear problems im hoping i can kill two birds with one stone that would really make the missus happy

cheers

Have you done the gearbox fault codes yet?



I doubt you'll be that lucky, the leaky o-ring shouldn't really have that much to do with gearbox slipping.

[BAV1]

sombody said something about speed sensor that was all and O/D occasionally flashes and wont pull away unless i manually select low and go up the gears

havent done the codes yet
