Do you feel like buying a new $100 mechanical fuel pump and just rolling the dice to see if the new pump makes everything better (without the need to turn on your electric pump)? I think that's probably what I would do. I just don't like leaving a part on the car that is not up to snuff. I don't know if it could actually leak much (either externally or internally) -- I drove a car for two years decades ago that dripped a drop of gas out of the fuel pump diaphragm every five or six seconds and nothing ever happened, other than poor gas mileage.
