Fuel pump leak

Hey everyone.

Came home from work and I could smell fuel. Big style.

Further inspection there was fuel on the outside of the fuel tank. So I took the fuel pump plate off and there were left overs from fuel there. So the fuel under pressure has come past the upper part of the fuel pump. 3 of the bolts seem to have lost their thread. Don't know how.

What's the best way to go about this? Cheers

    have you take them out ? I assume (from memory) they are just screwed into holes in the metal (tank), so you're best bet is to get slightly bigger screws (as long a the tank isn't rusted)...

    The bolts can be well corroded, in there, what was the condition of the larger rubber 'O' ring like?
