MG Midget and Sprite Technical - STP fuel cleaner/Pump issues

Is it safe to sling a bottle of this product into the 1275cc engine? My fuel pumps spitting fuel out,Ive taken it apart..and cant visibly see the problem,its flinging from the adaptors end...and the seals seem ok...gonna put it back together and report back.

If you mean half a bottle at a time of this in your fuel tank (why waste it in a small tank) then yes - http://www.stp.com/products/fuel-additives/complete-fuel-system-cleaner/

but it'll do nothing to stop a fuel leak from your pump

Ross - Look very closely at the adapters/turrets, they are plastic and often develop leaks. New ones are available from Burlen Fuel Systems. http://www.burlen.co.uk/ Cheers - Dave
