Will dig up a diagram. FYI, the sulphur is not what lubricates. The process which removes the sulphur destroys the lubriciity. I've heard this before (from Stanadyne) and the Chevron website makes the same point. ADDING sulphur to ULSD will NOT help lubricty, so if some yahoo comes along selling sulphur additive, it's snake-oil, so to speak. Chris

The parts of the pump that come in contact with the fuel are lubricated by the sulphur in the fuel. There is no mixing (or rather shouldn't be any mixing) of motor oil with fuel. Most of the IP is lubed by motor oil. Viewing a cut-away of an IP may help you comprehend the above statement. Johnny B.
