help with high pressure pump

[puma]

2000 f350 p/s
I have a high pressure oil pump that is leaking oil. Does anyone have any tips for changing it out?

if its just the hoses, you can get new O-ring kit from IH or ford, even NAPA has em now to, the lines like to work loose over time, and a good snugging will give you a temp fix to get to a store if its not to far.
but if it is the pump itslef, maybe rooster or whatabudro can shed some light, its been awhile since i popped a pump off, good bit of disassembly to get her out.

Need to know where it's leaking like already stated. There's some plugs that have been known to leak too.

I'd call Bean's DP for a little better insight.

Thanks for getting back to me.Its hard to tell where its leaking. There is a lot of oil in the valley.I cant see any drips while its running.Although its hard to see all the fittings and the h/p pump And i dont think I can run the engine w/ the filter housing removed.I checked with the local NAPA they could not find a listing. I am on the phone with ford right now.They offer a reman pump w/all the lines and fittings listed separatly.So I dont know where to start.The large plugs in the heads are definately not leaking. that was a different truck last week.
Thanks

my truck had one of the plugs work its way almost all the way out, ford dealer found it for me cause i was beating my head against the wall tryin to find the leak, it'd fill up the valley and leak down the bell, made it look like a rear main seal, they said the plug was finger tight, almost all the way out. Not sure which one it was though, wish i could help there...good luck with it.

Oil Leak

I had one of the small (#5 o-ring) plugs leaking and filled the valley. Clean with carb or break cleaner use a mirror and a strong light. plugs are close to the valve cover's top or inside edge.

Good luck
