Tried three or four times to stop it leaking. Steve (Artic) tried to get the clips tight, but there was still diesel on the bottom of the pump. He said it seems as though the casing was leaking at the bottom of the pump. I think it was Sewerman who stepped in with a cheap underbonnet pump, and I fitted that. No diesel on the bottom of the pump, and is still in use now. Not quite so quiet as the original, but it works. Could not send the one back as it was well out of warranty.
Yep was me glad its still going as it was a cheep ebay one brought before I was up to speed on the proper one.

Only brough because at the first nano I went to the UBP was commented on as being noisy that was 7 yrs and 65000 miles ago !
