Hi , fuel is coming out of the top of the VST. This is especially noticeable when I pump the fuel bellow, it’s as if I am pumping fuel straight through the unit. It’s coming out of this pipe( 507 on it)

Hi thanks for the reply, does this mean I will have to remove the VST and clean it
More than most often yes you’ll have to open it up to inspect and clean but before that you could try lightly tapping the top cover area to see if it might happen to unstick the needle and seat and see if the fuel stops flowing.
You’ll need your engine serial number to help locate the correct VST/ engine parts for your engine model.
