Back from the shop and not happy:( 850

OK, from the beginning, clean up the seaping fluid and figure out exactly the souce location of the leak. The fittings can be tightened carefully, however, the metal tubing can get distorted by over-tightening. Try to see if the tubing/fitting junction is the location of the leak. That will indicate an issue that a mechanic can more readily solve. If the pump is at fault, then try the used one first.

Always investigate throughly on your own - it will not hurt things to do so and may save much $$$. Do not panic! Mrsh has a slight speech impediment, but the advice is sound.
