[Healeys] Water Pump BN1

[WILLIAM B LAWRENCE]

There are no lurking biters involved with changing the four cylinder water
pump. It's a very straightforward operation.if you have a little 1/16th inch
gasket paper and a 1/4 or 1/2 ounce ball pein hammer you can make your own
gasket.

And why do we always ask if anyone knows where to find things when Dave Nock
is on the list and has pretty much anything you might need?
