Made some progress finally...

Got the seals in the injection pump replaced and my fuel leak persisted. The pump's seals were shot so no wasted time/money there... but the main leak was coming from the lift pump.

Pulled the lift pump and the IP was FULL of diesel fuel. After quite a bit of digging, finally found all the bosch part numbers and got everything in. I didnt take any pics of disassembly, but here are some shots of it going back together. I also posted a full break down and part numbers for this lift pump in the "Vintage" forum.

Reinstalling the roller plunger.


Plunger installed with new Viton o-ring (cause for the IP being full of fuel.. push the plunger and fuel sprayed out of the back of the lift pump)




Spring & Cup..




New crush washers




Valves and o-rings




Reassembled with new style hand primer & all Viton o-rings.


I stamped the 10 digit bosch number for the pump onto the tag.

I STRONGLY suggest that anyone that has an engine that has been sitting for any length of time... spend the $35 and rebuild the lift pump before it costs you an injection pump.

Gotta pick up a few 14mm crush washers for the banjo bolts and it should be back up and running tonight.. FINALLY!
