i get what your saying about centering the gerotor but doesnt it float inside the housing, if so, isnt it going to move around anyways?
i just completed my melling pump replacement today and i have 60lbs at start up and its holding 40lbs once hot. also use the black o-ring, i tried the green one but couldnt get it to sit right since it was too large. i believe the green one was for the truck pick up tube that is a little different.
