Is there a way to replace throttle shaft seal on vacumn switch side without tearing the pump down so far like in your VW link? Being new to this diesel stuff, that torn down pump looks scary to me. Thanks
Are the seals ( o-rings ) a straight forward swap out? I'm assuming the IP doesn't have to be taken apart and can be done with common tools. Does the kit come with instructions and do most auto parts stores like NAPA carry them?
The leak from the IP is coming from the throttle shaft on the vacumn switch side. Would that be a rebuild or just maybe some new o-rings. Wondering what kind of $$ i'm looking at before I decide on this vehicle. Thanks
Looked at a 1009 to buy but having second thoughts after seeing IP leaking badly. Want to know if that leak would cause a hard starting issue (drawing air in system). It started and ran for about 2 seconds and died out. After cranking 2-3 mores times it fired up. Thats when I saw the fuel leak...
