    Bought one recently from Yesterford in Melbourne for about $80.

    A word of warning, avoid GOSS brand pumps for Pinto's, they have a casting problem that causes the housing to crack before you can get the bolts tight.

    The fuel miser brand punmps dont seem to suffer this problem.

    Wheres it leaking oil from? Does it just need a new spacer gasket or a bit of gasket goo? The only place I've seen them leak is between pump and engine block.

    That is a point I haven't or can't climb under (to old & fat ) the oil is around the join where it is pressed together but this is also the lowest point. will check it further tonight Thanks for the suggestion
