screws directly into the fuel pump. The threaded connection isn't tapered, doesn't fit very tight, and didn't appear to have a gasket or sealant of anykind to stop the connection from leaking.
I have had this problem before, but I kept playing with it and it would stop. Now the gas just squirts out when the pump is on.
Am I missing a gasket or rubber washer or ??

Thanks.....

jeeter,

I looked at the PET and for 86-89 it shows the fuel pump, a check valve with a seal ring, and a banjo type fuel line connector with a seal ring on each side. Sounds to me like you're missing one of the seal rings, but I can't be sure.

Bottom line is you don't want any fuel leaks - very bad medicine!

Good Luck!

there should be a fitting with a check valve that screws directly into the pump. This fitting seals with a copper washer, crush ring, on tne outside shoulder of this fitting should be, in order, 1 copper washer-banjo fitting-1 copper washer-cap nut. if any of these copper washers are missing do not drive the car, don't even run the engine untill its fixed. Good luck Mark T.

BTW.. check the rubber fuel line above the trans.. fluid seeks the lowest level.. (This BTW is where mine burst.. )welcome to the "might as well's" as long as your are under there.
