jackb_ms Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 I think I need to change from the purple pump to the gold pump to increase the clearance around the steering colum. Does someone knows what needs to be changed to chanfge to a gold pump or a fitting manual? Cheers Jack Emily, The Very Yellow 21
MADMALC Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 My gold pump to column clearance is tight. Did you know that you can slacken off the rack and rotate it to change the clearance. The universal joint allows quite a lot of adjustment to take place. S7MAD
oilyhands Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 The capacity of the purple pump is marginal. A gold pump might be a good thing to have. The pulley is smaller which can give better clearnace, usually the column is close to the pump cradle rather than the pump. Oily Edited by - oilyhands on 3 Aug 2010 18:35:45

oilyhands Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 Pump, pulley, strictly speaking the pickup pipe gauze filter and possibly the belt as the pulley is considerably smaller on the gold pump. Oily
