Tyler,
on that pump in the pic. what does that adjustment screw do on the back of the pump where the retard cable hooks too? on mine i'm leaking fuel in that area! is that a simple "O" ring fix? or is that more complicated? should i send it out ? i've done one on the front and that was easy?  but not sure about the back side? I noticed the MK1 pumps don't have that adjustment thing! is there a preference between the MK1 and MK2 pumps ? that you are aware of?
 thanks Duane

I believe that is the idle increase. I don't know how hard that seal is to replace.

You can try filling your pump with ATF and letting it sit for a day or two. I just did this on my grama's car and it fixed the leak. I don't know how long it will last but at least it's holding up for now.
I just hooked the jug up to the pump and let it run for about 5 minutes at various RPMs
