Hi Davo

I would be very keen to order a pump if you could put me in contact with this supplier.

Hi again, the little hole also frevents water flowing into the sump and causing possible huge damage, so dont be tempted to silastic it!
I am away visiting my brother, but have a pump that holds water on a Luv (Josh's). I will get it off and send it, at least it might get you mobile while we all search. I will then have a motor to test other used pumps on.

In my experience, Aus delivered sedans, GTs, Florians and G161 O.H.V. Luvs all have the same pump, with 3 bearing motors 64 to 66 not using the backing spacer plate. The seal detail is different on early pumps I believe too.

Do run Ethylene glycol coolant, (green) even in warm climes as the alloy corrodes readily.
Will be a week or so,
Cheers, Matt.
