I eventually replaced the two O'rings re-fitted the springs shims backing plate etc all looked fine, I also had purchased a new fuel filter so I struggled getting that off but eventually it gave in and I won! new one fitted. Now the problem it wont start! There is no fuel in the filter dry as a bone I understand that the pump should self bleed foot to the floor and turn her over, but not a drop to the pump or even the filter. am I missing something?
