I was trying to start my 72 today and it wasnt pumping fuel so I took it off and stood it upright and sprayed some throttlebody cleaner in the ports let it sit a few min and tried it again. it worked! creates pressure but it leeks on the side of it behind the wire connectors. Can this be rebuilt? Or is it time to get a new one?

I have the same problem. My pump doesn't "leak", it more like oozes such that I get faint gas odors in the car but no real puddles. If there is a rebuild kit I would like to know about it. If Parts guys sell these, who are they?
