Just enquiring if there is a known issue with the dimensions of new water pump covers.
I fitted a new pump and cover today but can't get the inlet manifold to fit without it fouling the pump cover. The casting body from the front bolt hole to the edge (where hose adapter is screwed in) is about 3.5mm thicker than the original.
The cover is sitting properly with 2 gaskets but the 3.5mm extra width is just enough to stop the manifold.
I've emailed supplier and await a response, but wonder if anyone else has had problems.
Cheers
Steve
