Hi all.
After a few hours spent cleaning my engine, probably high on petrol fumes, while wheeling it back in to the garage it decided to leap off my tool chest. Where the filter screws on to the pump, the pump is broken. Some expletives were released. It could have been worse I thought as I had a spare in the loft. Appears the spare oil pump is a spare for a different O-series based engine, see photos. The pump appears to be the same in all ways, even has the feed for the turbo, but has no hole to screw in the pressure switch! Any thoughts as to what I have, whether it can be modified, or whether I can effectively use a T-piece to connect turbo feed and pressure switch?
Cheers,
Ian
