Very cute, Mal! You're on a roll with the invitations!

The pump is mounted to the engine directly above the oil pan. Can the pump leak fuel into the engine?


Yes, it can if fuel gets through a torn diaphragm that is still able to pump a little, it will go right into the crankcase.

You said, I believe, that the engine was stuck when you got it? What steps did you take to un-stick it and after doing so, did you check and/or hone the cylinders and replace the rings at the very least? If not, you shouldn't have been running it at all until those things were done.
