Gas leak in fuel pump assembly.

[popwarbunny111]

I have a 1990 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX. My Fuel pump is in the trunk of the vehicle.
Well when i put it back in from taking it out. I tried to start it and i now have a leak in my fuel
line on the assembly part. Will JB weld work to fix the leak?

Yes it will. JB weld holds up to all liquids and will cause no problems. Make sure you take the sending unit out and let it dry first. Can you take a picture of where it's leaking at?

Thanks I'll try it and see what happens.

It's here but it's all rusted out

Yeah you can do it but you'd be smarter to buy a new one from somebody parting a 1G out for $30. I just picked one up for mine for $30 shipped for my 2g.

Jb weld will work,(been there)but lot's of companies rebuild them for cheap.I just got one back and for 40 bucks,sandblasted, new extended lines welded in and painted.It looked like brand new.The place was a radiater specality shop.

Wondering if you could rubber hose it? Anyone have any experience or think that it would work?

It probably won't work .

I cut mine off, drilled it out and put in a bulkhead.. But I also replaced the fuel lines and put in two 255's at the time... Just find a used one if you're not going all out with it.
