    Is that an aftermarket fuel pump you have there? FYI, I’ve had several fishing motors come thru my shop that have had one of the ”cheap” Ebay, Amazon, etc. fuel pumps installed on them. On the ones I’ve seen, they all leaked at the seams. I tried an OMC fuel pump kit, but no go.. the gaskets and diaphragms won’t fit. I also noticed the check valves are junk. I think your better off buying a NOS fuel pump off Ebay.. that’s what I’ve been doing. I’ve found some pretty cheap. I had a V6 come in the other day, (with dual fuel pumps) and that one lasted about 2 years before it crapped out. I had to replace them with NOS OMC ones. I myself, was curious if these cheap pumps were worth anything… my conclusion is, no!
