Like you Dave, I have not seen everything. Call me paranoid but I
don't want to remove the pump and relief valve without having another
one available within a reasonable amount of time. If for whatever
reason the pump I took off was not able to be put back on because the
threads or internal workings got messed up during applying the
re-sealing kit I would be stranded because there is no other pump to
replace it with...used new, re-built, whatever...I'd be stranded for
over 120 days!
They make a seal kit for the pump and I am sure it will fix the
problem...but I can't afford to take the chance of it doing something
that might make the pump totally unusable...I can at least at this
point move short distances and then refill the hydraulic reservoir!
Like I said....old and paranoid.
