My diesel pump decided to start leaking and kill my alternator.

Anyway all sorted now but is it possible that something needs adjusting as it seems to be idling higher than it used to.

take it you changed the bush and o ring at the spindle?,you probably havnt put the spindle back as was,on mine you can slacken the locknut and turn the spindle to the right idle,not difficult,theres also an idle screw on top of the pump

Not sure what was done as I didn't repair it. What is best to do? Turn the spindle or the screw?

I would just try turning down the idle screw and seeing how it drives. Changing the spindle position can be a pain in the backside.

They normally settle down after a run in period.

Done about 700 miles since the pump repairs and idle still seems high and MPG is poor.

Any one got a pic of the idle screw?
