1. No start, turns over with odd sound. Sounded like no fuel in the Inj pump and cranking with less resistance, kind of faster turn over.
2. Inspected the Inj pump, think it had lost fuel and needed to be primed (original primer too, but has worked fine on her running it empty, I know), would not prime.
3. No oil in the Inj pump, I check it at oil changes. Uses its own oil source not from the engine oil.
4. Refilled the oil and over night all of it leak out on the ground.
Any ideas? Seals bad or pickup diaphragm bad? Is it shot and needing rebuild? I have completely rebuilt the drive line, suspension/ends/bushing/bearings, all mounts, Alternator, AC system, and exhaust, many more too. So that said I'll fix what ever it is. My real question is should I pull the inj pump and rebuild it or try a seal kit & diaphragm?
Thanks in advance for any input, Dain

Where did the oil leak out from?
"turns over with odd sound"; If you can see the Camshaft from the Oil Fill hole; remove the cap and have some one crank to see if the Camshaft is turning. Or remove the Valve cover to view the same and inspect the Camshaft and Valve Train.
