Hey All,

I'm pretty sure my mechanical fuel pump is leaking fuel into the engine.

recently the oil has started to smell a bit like petrol when i check the level (which I do weekly)

Should I replace it with a mechanical fuel pump? or get an electric one? and if electric, which one should I get?

Its just a 998 with a single HS4

Thanks!
