Yes. On your '87 you can simply lift the tank out of position and lay it to the side to access the pump, provided it is nearly empty.

If completely empty, I prefer to rotate and lift the pumps out of the reservoir over un-hooking the fluid lines.

Suspect what ever you want to :-)

I replaced the pump on my 1992 300 TD Turbo. The pump is under the washer fluid tank, on the left side of the engine. I had to renew it when I installed a webasto diesel heater.

It is a tight space, but with a small screw driver, it is no problem. One like THIS.

The pump it self is just pushed into a rubber housing.

That there's porn.

I've seen the Webasto OE installation in a few Euro-market cars (gas 126s usually), have always wanted to install one in a diesel 124. Can't justify it with a heated garage, but it's a cool option to leave the heat on when your car is parked outside the office.
My '72 VW Westfalia had the aux-heater on a timer, pretty handy (necessary really in that vehicle).

I have a timer, and I've also connected it to the alarm, so I can start it with the remote control :-)

The webasto DBW46 was the original choice in this cars, but I've put in a Webasto Thermo Top C. Had to do everything from scratch.

The difference in finding the car sitting outside the house with all windows full of ice, -or- finding it with 50C in the engine, 15C inside, and no ice on the windows can't be described :-)

When getting home from work in the evening, when all colleagues have their cold engines idling (poor engines) and scraping ice, while my biggest problem is I have to take the jacket of before I get into the car, all the effort monunting this thing was really worth it.


Sorry off topic ...

SR or SP is the letters used on the license plates in Bergen. Bergen is not cold, Bergen is just wet :-)
