    Fuel pump leaking

    My 93 argo 16hp Vanguard has been sitting for a couple of years and I decided to get her back in running order. Got her started up and I noticed fuel leaking out of one of the holes in my fuel pump. I'm pretty sure that is not normal. It wasn't running perfect but was running all the same. Any ideas what it could be? The fuel is coming from the center hole and it's like pulsating out. Thanks.

    The diaphragm is leaking, replace the fuel pump.
    2 of your clamps are also out of position.


    My new beer holder spilled some on the trails - in it's hair and down it's throat.
    Joe Camel never does that.

    Advice is free, it's the application that costs.

    Hmm which ones? the bottom 2? Didn't think it mattered where the clamps were located. Thanks for the info.

    EDIT: I found which clamps you were talking about, I fixed them thanks. I'll grab a new fuel pump tomorrow and swap it out.
