Captains Log - That Errant SLS Pump

O-rings are being delivered today and I will be resealing both the pump on the car and my old pump. It is leaking about one liter every two days. Much more than the old pump did.

If these keep developing leaks, i will remove the cam from the pump and reinstall it with a flat (no hole) gasket, remove the supply line to the conrtol valve, replace it with a plug and cap the line. Then use a picture of the pump for target pratice.
