Update on the fuel pump install

Found some copper gaskets at a local auto parts store. Around the same time I got a response from the customer service at our host here who identified the correct copper gaskets which I had not been able to find in the online store. However, I went with what I had - the locally procured copper gaskets. They leaked like a sieve. The closest I could get in size was 0.5 inch where the perfect fit is 12mm. Thought that would be close enough. Steady leak as soon as I stared the engine and pressurized the system. immediately ordered the correct gaskets from our host. Since the leak was obviously at the banjo connection, i think the correct gaskets will fix it.
