Alloy And Cast Iron Water Pumps..?

Recommended Posts

MiniGibbo

Found out earlier they differ... What do I do now..?

 

I have a alloy engine and piping and trying to fit a bare cast iron block :/

Use the iron block waterpump and outlet, use the 205 bottom rad - block hose with a bit of trimming down

 

Easy!

I don't have the outlet though :/

 

Going to have to see if I can find one down the scrap yards..

To continue this...

 

the scrap yard near me only had what looked to be alloy engines, even though the saxo vtr's are cast..??

 

For those who haven't seen my journal this is my problem..

 

XSI (missing the bit that goes between the big and little pipe and the block.. and the top engine mount)

Rallye engine (with the all in one water pump housing that I thought id be able to use but cant for obvious reasons)

Now the obvious answer is to buy the missing bits but where..? ebay has nothing and neither does the local scrappy..??

 

Advice..?

Going by photos VTR's should have what I need.. They must have all been furious and below I saw.

if a furio has an iron lump that'll do! but I guess it didnt...

 

early TUD5's have the same bracket btw.

 

TU3 and TU5 206's have them, as do 306's,

You may as well be speaking Spanish to me with those codes I'm affriad :(

 

A mate told me to look for a iron engine which would only be found in series 1 106's/205's and 1600's.

 

Guy on moaners might have the bits I need thankfully.. If not a trip back down the scrapyard with a magnet it is..

you best start learning Spanish then lad! :P

 

do you know S50B30? :lol:

 

no need for a magnet, iron block is rusty, alloy block is a white powdery thing !
