You need to get more oil in the mix, Jet A is too dry... Id try running about 20% motor oil or the turbine oil your asking about. Man I miss the days of free AV gas for my bikes!

Depending on what you want out of your truck I often suggest changing the clutch while you’re doing the rear main seal…...
It’s a series 14 design... more specifically a Vickers VTM28-XX-XX-XX-XXX... These are not all the same pumps as the specs swing wildly depending the application so if you’re going to go hunting the civy market for them ya better do your reading first on deciphering the spec tags... If not you...
Clean the snot out of it, then use 3M weather stripping adheasive to attach the gasket to the VC and let it dry 24 hours. Reinstall it with about 8lbs of tq IE one finger on the end of the ratchet!!!!! If it doesnt hold get another cover.
