Good idea about the rubber band. Those vanes AIN'T gonna stay in place if they have anything to say about it. |
I am a little paranoid about changing the wear patterns on the vanes, that is why I am going to use a rubber band to hold them in. I also wonder about the thing on the other half of the pump that is held in by a clip. I assume it is the pressure regulator because the last one had "110" written on it and it was a 110 bar pump. It has a bolt on the back side with a little screen in the middle.
Are there replaceable seals in there?
Am I better off not messing with it?
I didn't undo last one because I was afraid of some spring exploding out when I take it apart. My main concern was the shaft seal which would get all dried up in a parts car in the scorching sun.
Also, I am wondering if there are seals on the connections to the pump. It looks like metal-to-metal, but the guy who is supplying the pump said he was including O-rings for that. I did not see any O-rings come out when I took the old one out.
