[Mgs] old style water pump

[Robert's New iPad]

  Max is giving good advice about use of the needle-tip tool for this. One of the U-joints in my MGB is too small to admit even my smallest grease-gun tip to the fitting, so the needle-tip device works a treat.
  Good on you for making efforts to keep the original bits on the car.
