Did the garage say where on the pump its leaking ? Dome seals can be done without removing the pump but internal leaks require pump removal.

Factsheet here: http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/member ... elpump.pdf. I would take to a more Bongo-savvy garage to have any work done on the injector pump as it can be expensive to repair if not looked after.

If you let us know roughly where you are we can likely recommend a garage. :wink:
