It may be time to offer customers basic "rebuild" and/or seal kits for these pumps. If you have really high numbers of them out there, the parts sales alone will be worth the effort.

Of course there are always concerns with untrained folks rebuilding these sorts of things, but there really are some pretty sharp folks out there, and fuel pumps are a relatively simple/basic item without a lot of moving parts.

Having to send them back for a seal leak takes many race cars out of service. Not everyone can affort one or two back-up fuel pumps in the tool box. Just something to consider?......Cliff
