New water pump doesnt fit
Hey !
Need a little help here.
The new water pump is pressing with back plating bolts against the chain plate. The fitting is off by 2 milimeters wich it would make a huge leak ofcourse.. Manufactor for this pump is airtex.
should i grind the top of the bolts off without making anyharm to the pump itself?
The thing is i destroyed 2 sets of gaskets before finding this out - becouse with gaskets and sealer applyed it didnt feel or look to have any offset i'm in EU and have 0 gaskets left, if i order new it takes up to 20 days for new ones to arrive.
the roads are clean and sun is shining.. but not for me.
