Default Washer Pump Parts Question

My first time on rebuilding a Windshield Washer Pump, and cannot find any specific answers on where the 3 little discs go, or the large rubber ring either.



I can only guess the discs are backflow prevention devices and the ring maybe a pump body mount.

I hate guessing.

Thanks.
Steve

Hi Steve, Once you remove the 4 screws on the white plastic washer pump to remove it from the washer assembly. You'll be able to carefully take it apart. It is in two sections. Once you open it up you'll see where the three round seals go. Be careful to notice the way they go. Two face one way, and the third faces the opposite. The round rubber seal replaces the round seal that holds the two together. Pretty easy job. Just make sure you get the little rubber tip on the three little seals all the way through the holes so they seal correctly. I don't see the 3 ring seal in your photo. It should be part of the kit too, I'll show it in my pics from my spare parts. I'll post some photos in a bit, I'll need to go out to the garage.
Here you go Steve!
In there first photo I used two parts to show both sides. (Of course the aged yellow is an original, vs. the white/white reproduction.) The bottom photo shows the opposite side seal.
Hope this helps,
Tooch
