I bought a UBP for my diesel as a spare from Rimmers , just in case job. Bad move by me. When I came to fit it at a one of our Nano Meets a couple of years ago, after having the pump for around 8/9 years in-the boot wrapped up in rag, fitted it and could not work out where the diesel leak was coming from. It was looked at by one of our experts at the Nano, and it was decided that it was leaking from the bottom of the pump because the metal at the bottom of the pump was to thin, or was porous Luckily another member had another spare ubp which was fitted and is still working. My advice, although it is a boring job to do, fit it when you get it, and save the one that you know is working ok...
