Expert Posts: 1265 Location: barnsley | heres my new oil pump i bought this is the later style pump to replace the older pump as the old one was the wrong application for my engine it should have had this later pump on the turbo engine i paid 96 pounds for it from landrover and rover wanted 155 pounds for the exact same part managed to get old pump off after i had a problem trying to find somewhere to lock flywheel so that i could undo crank pulley Edited by dazbooker 21/2/2009 1:34 PM (002.jpg) (003.jpg) Attachments ---------------- 002.jpg (65KB - 82 downloads) 003.jpg (56KB - 77 downloads) | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 558 | dazbooker - 21/2/2009 1:27 PM managed to get old pump off after i had a problem trying to find somewhere to lock flywheel so that i could undo crank pulley Easy way if you've got someone to help is leave the car in gear and get someone to apply the brakes, rather than locking the fly - saves taking the flywheel covers off!!! Out of interest whats special about the new oil pump, do you have any comparison pics? | ||

Out of interest whats special about the new oil pump, do you have any comparison pics? the early oil pumps had a 10.5 mm rotor inside and the later ones hada 11 mm rotor which means more oil flow | ||

Extreme Veteran Posts: 558 | QUOTE] the early oil pumps had a 10.5 mm rotor inside and the later ones hada 11 mm rotor which means more oil flow Ok, thanks for that! I thought the rotor fins may have been slightly different or something to improve oil flow! Not much space in that engine bay of yours, good luck fitting your ABS pump, hope it all works out good | ||
