Plea for water pump bolt (that fits)

[aidanbree]

I have hunted previously for a bolt for my water pump that fits and never found one. I have a make do one which I have discovered is the source of my horrible clunky noise. The spindle has play in it.....

Does anyone have a spare or know where to get the right one? Been round loads of places but can't get an identical one.

Cheers

Hey? you need a bolt for a water pump to stop it clunking? which bolt do you need?

Serps are just M8 all round the water pump & pump pulley except for the long 2 that go into the block (but I cant see them clunking or for that matter just a single bolt missing???)

Its one of the three bolts that hold on the water pump. Any of the bolts I have picked up don't quite fit into the slight recess

3 bolts sounds like you are on about the water pump pulley not the pump itself.

In that case, 3 x M8 socket caps, 15mm long IIRC ~ you should be able to get them just about anywhere, getting flanged bolts with reduced hex like the originals would be a lot trickier. If you really want originals give a shout & I'll post you some, I must have plenty as I always replace them due to having loads of SS M8 caps.

Yep, thats the ones. If you could post me one then I can reimburse you with a few pints for your trouble.

Will drop you a PM!
