new pump time. there is a little hole on the bottom of the pump known as a tell tale hole. if it is leaking from that hole, it is new pump time.

Thanks for that Ste, i have the Rave Maint Gen & have seen an exploded view off pump showing several O-ring seals so was hoping to change these may solve issue? do you no? if so i won't bother & will have to spend more cash on this bloody LR...grrrrrrrr Thanks again for reply Regards Andy

depends whether it is leaking from the joint, or the tell-tale hole? BUT, for the price of a new pump, if you were to replace the seals, i'd replace the pump as well. new pumps are only about £20.
