[Healeys] Water Pump Stud

[Michael Oritt]

Hi Mike--

>From memory:  Though I think you can get by with just one of the shouldered
"special nuts" having two of them makes the R & R easier.  The bottom-most
stud certainly requires one of these nuts as its location is shrouded by
the WP's casting. Even with these nuts you must use an open-ended wrench as
there is not room for a socket,

Good luck--Michael Oritt
