leaking thottle shaft

[cubby]

Is there an easy way to fix a leaking thottle shaft (witout taking the IP out)? 86' 6.2

I found my answer in a previous post, but now I need to know if there is a part number for the throttle shaft seal.

According to my 85 parts manual it's

14083510 for a "J" pump.

Maybe someone can confirm this.

I replaced the throttle shaft seals on a 6.2 DB2 about 10 years ago. The pump only had about 30K on it, and though the local Stanadyne shop insisted I'd need a new pump, I got the new Viton seals from them (about $2) and changed the seals myself without removing the pump.

Not a big deal if you are somewhat mechanically inclined - when disassembling and re-assembling little parts. You will need to scribe a line on the "light-load advance cam" and the throttle shaft, so it goes back on in the same orientation as it was originally. I used a carbide scribe tool.

Good cheap fix...

Thanx guys, If I have to I will take the parts of a spare pump for now. No problems with starting, or running, I could just smell the raw fuel dripping on the motor.
