picture is useless for me.... its all black and blurry.... I still think it might be something simple as a gasket....even one you could cut yourself!! for .50 cents!!
of course for all those that blame the VRO pumps for all their troubles...going with a new fuel only pump, will be peace of mind!!!

I certainly would never blame the poor but reliable VRO pump for all my troubles, because she is disconnected! But yeah, a lot of people are quick to blame the VRO. I guess my problem is that you have a single part performing 2 functions, and they made it damn expensive. And not cheap to rebuild the fuel side, and almost impossible to rebuild the oil side.
Here is the thing when I read articles or posts on how reliable the VRO system is: It's reliable, right up until it decides to quit working. And unless all your other sensors are working correctly, you may not know. Premix pretty much ensures that you will never have a lack of lubrication, at the cost of not being able to vary the oil to fuel ratio. I'm fine with changing plugs more often, others prefer to keep the VRO; I don't judge. Whatever works for you, as long you feel good about it.
But yeah, I am going with a fuel only pump at some point soon, mainly because they are smaller & cheaper, but more importantly, you can rebuild them very, very cheap! And there is more room for me to get at stuff like my fuel filter.
