Change the pump... Or you'll likely regreg it in 12 months time if it's clunky...

I see what you did there.

12 months on the pump would be great!

The pump is really not that old, I have a receipt from when it was purchased new and it's done ~25,000km since then. it really should be okay. And if it it's not, well. I figured I'd at least run it out as it's already tapped for the nissan temp sensor sticking out of it.



Here it was, ready to make it's journey back into the bay, though the balancer had to be tightened/seated more.

And it was very stubborn to sit back. So much so that the crank bolt ended up stripping inside the crank instead of the balancer moving to it's intended location.

Can you at least move to a location without so many ladders, black cats and mirrors precariously propped up ready to be knocked down?

Or buy yourself a 1 ton bulker bag of salt to drag around with you. Just, you know, sling it over your shoulder?

Stroker kit time?
