It's dripping a lot from the spring beneath the throttle control of it is just a bushing or o ring that needs replaced on the throttle shaft where do I get replacements and how do I get the top on of the pump off?!?

After living w hat you're dealing with, I would suggest you 're seal the whole pump. One bad. O ring on a 22 year old ve pump is a sign that all the seals are going bad. You could just repair the offending o ring, but you'll be back at another that's waiting to let go.

I had no place to do the re seal myself, so I paid a shop to do it for me. The rebuild / reveal job you ask about is in the sticky, I believe

There's a bronze bushing and a o ring on the shaft. Replace both, the bushing pressed into the top. I would buy a reseal kit and do every seal you come across while you have the top off. Make sure to note your throttle index marks when you pull the linkage off
