What luck.I went away for the thanksgiving weekend and decided to put my 1972 142 into the garage. After being gone for a a few days I got a call from home that my girlfriend smelled gas in the garage. While I was gone the temperature dropped at home (not really colder than sweden though). Upon returning home (after being stuck at Seattle airport for 14 hours) I went to look at the car. The electric fuel pump is now leaking from the plastic electric connecter. I don't believe I can fix the leak, or is it replacable? Can the cold weather do this or was it just a coincedence? And does anyone have a fuel pump they may be willing to part with? The Volvo junkyard here in Seattle has raised its price on the fuelpump by 30% in the last 5 months.

Thanks for any info
