Re: Re: Leaking Water Pump

All I can add is that I bought a ‘new’ Solex Carb for my DS Ian, which turned out to be a reconditioned one and that had to go back as it was a nightmare when hot, with the 2nd choke sticking on causing the engine to race. We agreed that there was no point sending a replacement as they couldn’t guarantee that the other 3 they held would be any better…… (I rebuilt the original myself and it’s been fine)

I don’t have an issue with the new TA parts I have bought, but won’t get anything reconditioned from them.

My old water pump for the Traction was sent for reconditioning in the UK as Chris (TOC Spares) said they switched supplier for the reasons you have outlined I’m afraid.
