Subject: Re: 2 litre Oil Pump
Roger, many thanks for that - in fact, I put about half a cup of SAE 80 gear oil in - result: happiness!
Now to get rid of the wretched water leak from behind the water pump... ACE jubilee clips are anything but ace! To make things worse, it's virtually impossible to change the short hose and/or clips without removing the pump! Oh well, at least the motor runs, with NO rattles, and 40 psi warm. Speaking of warm, when's the wretched weather going to improve? My 70 year-old fingers don't work very well when icicles are hanging off them!
Thanks again,
Steve.
