OK, I was really happy, I'm 495 days into the "Tune UP" and repair of the D-Jet fuel injection unit. After completely rebuilding the engine, Injection components, Wiring harness for the D-Jet, align boring the Type IV case, The plastic bags were empty! Yay for empty parts containers! I made the decision after check the electrical out to add Gasoline........

The Bosch Pump leaks out of the seams as soon as it pressurized like a sieve, fuel all under the pump.

That wonderful little gem of a NLA fuel pump. Any suggestions, O-ring and seal kits? I would like to stay with the Bosch pump but am I the lone ranger on this?

Is the alternative to just run a single outlet pump (Which one?) and just run the return line direct to the pump? I was really hoping after 9 years to have my wife's 914 running by the weekend.

I appreciate all the help and suggestions out there.

OK, So I used the Bosch 69469 Pump. I used the square fuel filter that goes from 7MM inlet to a 12MM outlet as the pump has a 12MM inlet with a 7MM outlet. eliminated the "Y" Changed the ends on the factory wires to those supplied by Bosch in the box. This resolved the fuel pump issue.

I know I promised pictures , However the fine people at Cardomain.com have made their website so hard to navigate that was not possible today. But the picture above is basically how I did the install also, except I did use the rubber isolation mounts.

Again Thanks very much, the next adventure is following Kjell's D-Jet troubleshooting pages, The engine will buck and kick but not start. However that will be the next thread.
