Installed CM30 BUT..problem

I had my brand new CM30 pump installed today and of course the pump has some kind of problem on the o-ring gasket and its leaking. Has this ever happened to anyone else? It just keeps dripping a few drops every few seconds. I ordered it from APE and I'm going to call them tommorow to let them know the problem. I kept the pump in there and I FINALLY do not have the S/C shutting off on me anymore. I did maybe 6-7 nice full throttle runs and not 1 problem all day. It normally took me only 2 full throttle runs before it shutoff. I'm going to see if APE will take this pump back and send me the new one

I had a video done today after the install. ( If you dont like AGGRESSIVE DRIVING DONT CLICK !!! )

You have to use new clamps. Factory clamps are just a touch too big. They look like they fit, but they do not seal.

Pump is fine.

Good Luck!

I used the clamps that came with the new pump. So I don't think it's the clamps.

It is was most likely not installed properly. I Highly doubt it is the CM30.
