This is a job I should have tended to a few years ago. Hindsight. Diesel is leaking from the fuel pressure switch. Trying to decide if I should just replace the switch (I have a spare) or get rid of the switch entirely and rewire to a keyed ignition switch. Of course access is very tight. And it looks to me that I might have to take the entire assembly off to just get the switch off. That or find some special tool that would get at the pump switch. My question is this. The pressure switch itself mounts on a small block or "adapter" with 3 different openings. One is for switch, one for a bleed screw, and one for a hex head that actually mounts the assembly to the pump body. My thinking is to remove the entire assembly and just plug where it was mounted. And if need be that plug could serve as a bleed point. I believe some of you have done this job? Advice?
