mader656 Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Im thinking the seals on the injection pump are leaking....from sitting for three years still runs and starts good can the seals be changed at home or do i need a shop to do it? Just had the return line off and no crud.... just making oil about a quart in 8 hours... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mader656 Posted August 12 Author Share Posted August 12 I should note ive only worked hard for a hour or so since a fresh inframe Could it be going past the rings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoshoe Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 The seals them selves are easy to change. Condition of bushing in pump is important. With out tool or previous experience. Getting first seal in without rolling can be a challenge but it is not that hard to master. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HydroTek Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Like @snoshoe said , just be sure the lip on the first enters the bushing without rolling -- you can use a dull oring pick , the rear side will be the challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mader656 Posted August 12 Author Share Posted August 12 Is this the right seal kit and is the tool worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoshoe Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Hard to say. How much are the seals without the tool? To me it would be a two to five dollar tool. Still would use it if it was there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoshoe Posted August 12 Share Posted August 12 Should point out that the tool is a help. Does not make it automatic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mader656 Posted August 19 Author Share Posted August 19 Done wasnt that bad. Worst part was not timing the pump correctly, twice Tomorrow ill know if ive fixed the making oil issue the old seals seamed soft...like not enough pressure to hold out. Gotta fix the flat front tire now... if it aint one thing its another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
