[Rovernet] Rovernet Digest, Vol 88, Issue 8

Tue Oct 27 12:23:42 EDT 2020

There is the challenge that the old impeller may break when removed
(obviously if your kit doesn't contain a new one) or breaking the housing.
If your housing is aluminum they tend to corrode. Horribly sometimes.
Sometimes getting the seal in without damaging it can be challenging too.
If you have issues with any of your parts I generally keep all of them on
the shelf, often including NOS pumps and rebuilt ones, both the European
and the NADA variety (not to mention new and rebuilt P2 & P3 1.6 and
2-litre pumps, impellers, etc.) .

*Thank you for your enquiry for our parts and services. We offer the
highest-quality spare parts for the vintage Land -Rover. Our staff is
minuscule while the demand for rare and “unobtainable” parts for early
Land-Rovers is relentless. While your concern is important to us, our
ability to respond to each and every enquiry may be limited and stocks of
many items are critically low.. We are primarily a restoration-based
enterprise but when we have a surplus of a given  item, we are able to
offer excess stocks to our dedicated clients. If your need is urgent, we
encourage you to contact us by phone, in person. Leaving a message is
rarely effective, so we recommend direct contact. With many buildings full
of parts, it is not always easy to locate obscure items, and the process is
often time consuming. We hope you understand. Please
provide complete details of your exact model including year, wheelbase,
which side drive, engine, Country of origin, etc. When giving part numbers,
please also state the catalogue number (typically found on the front
cover).  We appreciate your understanding and will do all we can to help.*
