Needs to be from a 2.5 or 3.0ltr. If you can source one from a 2.6/3.2 you`ll need the pipework to the pump as well.

I was told by a breaker the 2.6/3.2 are different. so its just the pipework  :y

One last  thing Duck - have you checked the other possible causes such as a blown fuse, before replacing the pump ? ;)

The Duck, (as in this is the duck you old bandit ??? )

I'm in the process of replacing my pump with an idler and I'm looking for a cheap knackard pump that I can butcher on the lathe.  Any chance I could have yours for a small postage fee?

Cheers
