Got the rebuild kit in the mail today and when i opened up my old pump i noticed some parts are not the same.I know that you should just replace wot is taking off but one of the check valves is different.
I took a couple of pic's to let you see wot i mean.
Can i use the filler block (item c in the diagram) instead of the retaining spring and is that washer/c valve (top right in picture) complete. Should i use the spring and plastic cap also.
Thanks guys.

Some had the filler block with the spring and cap and some didnt.I have the same one you do without the filler block.So I decided I was going to use the gaskets/diaphram and put the pump back together using my old check valves works just like new.I personally dont like to add stuff that wasnt in there to begin with.
