Re: Leaking Fuel Pump - Easy to replace?

I guess California has been more complicated for a long time then.

So you don't just have a mechanical pump on the side of our engine like my 250 does? *Mine is at 9 O'Clock in the pic, the brass-looking round thing.

Not sure, mine had 3 lines. One is fuel return, one from gas tank and one is that line that comes up into the engine, carb I think?
