My point is that if you use fuel that eats seals, these older pumps DO mix fuel with the lube oil in the IP, so expect your seals to get eaten.

All of the OM61x and 60x pumps result in some fuel and oil mixing within the injection pump, but the amount of fuel diluting the oil is quite modest. If, when you do your oil analysis, you find any significant amount of fuel in the engine oil, then the injection pump probably needs to be rebuilt. This is rarely the case in less than 400-500kmi.
