Hi All
I've fitted a replacement engine (1.9dg) to my van which had been standing for a long time. All is now good apart from the waterpump which is leaking from the hole underneath.
My question is will it seal itself up after a while or do I need a new waterpump ( not interested in radweld etc)
If so where is the best place to get one and how much will it cost the cheaper the better for me!
Thanks .

Often not true when it comes to buying parts though.

You need to find out if it's an early or late dg engine that you've got in there (metal thermostat housing on the side of the water pump, or a plastic one that is further back in the engine bay?) and then have a look down at the bottom of this page:

It's leaking from the gland and is knackered ... buy a good new one.

Yes sorry its a later type,

Cheaper than an early pump then, £35.79 plus p&p.
