I stuck in my power pin tonight, but when I pulled the old one out, I had a small amount of fuel in the cylinder the aneroid pin fits is. Is this a sign the pump is getting ready to crap on me or just a leaky internal seal?

 

Sonds like the seal that is around the fuel pin that rides on the Eccentric. I don't think means that the fuel pump is ready to crap out. Just the seal is worn....... and prolly needs to be replaced

Hope that helps a bit

Any idea if its something that can be done at home or does the pump have to be tore down. Mabey this is the time to get the pump rebuilt and cranked up.

 

If you are willing to take the top cover off the pump, it can be done at home. Just put a little silicone grease on the pin, though, and it might clear your "weepage" up -- unless you really want a new pump.

 

if its just a little wet i wouldn't worry about it, now if it was full of fuel that would be different. Mine has been just a little wet ever since I started playing with the pump, so just over 10k miles
