Doug,

I haven't disassembled the pump yet, but I assume the diaphragm is leaking.
All I know so far is that it's leaking, and it's not the fittings or the
glass sediment bowl attachment.

Warren, when you say its leaking from inside, can you explain that a little 
more.

I've used rebuild kits and have had no problems with them, but until I look 
at a parts view of the pump, I can't say anything about the missing seal.
