So today I rebuilt the fool pump on the GT6 as per the suggestions of 
the kind folks herein.  For those with short memories, my motivation 
was the discovery that my oil was both more voluminous and thinner 
than it should have been.  (I can think of no other way for fool to 
have gotten into the sump.  Surely if I had stuck carb floats I would 
have seen big clouds of black smoke.)

To my surprise, on opening up the fool pump I was unable to observe 
any alleged leak in the diaphram (diaphragm?).  It is possible for 
there to have been one or more leak with no visible indication?

Curious.
