I have the same problem, fixed it on the field temporarily with a piece of rubber that the screw-on collar pressed in hard enough to prevent leaks but I guess I must do the same repair. Thanks for the video!

Thank you for a great video! 🎉 I've had the same issue on my Omnifuel pump. Couldn't figure out from any video what was going on, but after watching your vid, now I know! I bought a new pump, and it was leaking to!! 🥲I followed your steps, but god worried the glue would smoulder up and bits would get stuck in the fuel line, so I just knocked it out and changed the sealant, and it was Instant success! I think this happens when I am pumping to hard while the bottle is standing. Banging it down while pumping over the years might be the reason why it moves downward so much that the cap hardly sticks out. Happy camping folks! 🤙

in looking at some of the comments where OTHER people experienced this same issue, do you have any theories as to WHY exactly this problem occurs? I have an all metal Primus pump for my Himalaya but was wondering why a company that has the reputation that it has (Primus) would risk that reputation by going to a pump design that (apparently) fails! It can't be that much cheaper to build this plastic assembly compared to a piece of aluminum.

I just discovered one of mine has this exact same problem! Thanks for the video. What's the name of the epoxy?

You seem know abit about them any idea what size the seal is for the return valve rather than buying a service kit.

Thanks! Very useful! Is epoxy petrol-resistant?

A small tube will be enough as it can only be used once.
