Bill,
I have had both problems, the goose neck on the back of the block and the
electric after run pump. Both caused minor leakage. Both are hard to
locate becouse they evaporate rather than drip when the leak is small.
Don't waste your time with just the o-ring on the goosneck on the back of
the block. The plastic warps with time and leaks even with a new o-ring in
my case. I own two 92 s4's and both cars had both problems.
