Source for pulley shims

Post by wagenbod »

Hullo everybody

Does anyone know where I can get hold of some water pump pulley shims (3 holes) for my 1600 diesel (CS 1983)?

I've tried all the usual sources and can find the pulley halves ok but not the shims.

cheers

Why not make your own or use flat washers between the two halves till you can find some,,,,,,,or last resort is to use one from a beetle..... :o

Thanks for these ideas, Fritz. Had actually thought of making a couple out of the old pulley halves, if it comes to that.

regards, Neil

Fill in your details and then somebody locally might be able to help. I have a stack of them under my drivers seat. Take a look under your seat its a popular place to store spare belts etc. I am in Gloucester if you want o come and collect mine as I have upgraded to the newer style belts system.
