Do I have an auxillary water pump?

I am doing a WVO conversion and one of the things I can do to help heat the WVO quicker is to wire the auxillary water pump to run when the ignition is on. I have an 85 300TDT, Euro. I have A/C and climate control. I have been looking for the aux. water pump but I don't see one.

Where should it be?
Is it possible I don't have one?

I will add something if I find I don't have one.

Peter

On a 124 it's directly under the washer fluid

tank. Trace the driver's side hose FROM the firewall/heater core tube toward the engine - should be somewhere there. They are hand size and the hoses are about 1" in OD.

The W123 should have a pump in the right front of the engine bay, behind the foglight.

Look below the air snorkel tube and you should see it.

He has a euro model and it may not be on his car.

It is a w123

Forced, Thanks for the input. I have looked on the right hand side (passenger side, in North America!) and the hose goes from the firewall, rubber hose then steel pipe then rubber hose, makes a 90 degree turn at the fog light and then goes into the engine water pump. Nothing there. So, I guess I don't have one.

I will add one behind the fog light. I have a bit of room there.

I suspected that the euro model did not have that feature.
