Cheers Derek!
Bought a pump from Brookhouse along with the bolts... as you say, for less than 2 quid you'd be a fool not to.
Thought I'd have to remove the radiator, so I'm glad you confirmed this. Didn't know about the jacking/alignment part, so, thanks again for outlining this.
Might do it this weekend if the weather is not unbearably hot.
Last water pump I did was on a 2.8 Capri a fair few years back... held on with 10 13mm bolts IIRC and every single one sheared off when I removed the pump. Took AGES to remove the old ones, tap the holes... in November. In the rain.
Hope this job goes better!!
