Windshield Washer Pump

[1966er]

While rebuilding my 66 windshield washer pump, it dawned on me that I've seen these somewhere else before.

So, I went and found them at Year One https://www.yearone.com/Product/1966-74-a-b-e-body/wp2 for $71 + their outrageous shipping charges.

Then I went here http://www.cjponyparts.com/windshield-washer-pump-1-speed-3-bolt-1965/p/WWP1/ Same pump on sale for $28 + FREE shipping.

It's a "NO-BRAINER" and I have dealt with these people for over 4 years on my other (secret) car without any problems.

Thought I'd pass this on to the 66 & 65 owners......

btw, this pump is so easy to fix so long as the motor still works and the 2 tiny gears are intact.

It's just a matter of bending the 3 tabs so that the housing is removed.

Then drill out the 3 rivets on the gear housing, revealing the gears that more and likely have crud on them, preventing the motor from turning them to pump fluid.

Clean them up with WD40 and use 1/8th rivets to reseal. Or buy new like above.

Let me tell ya something about these pumps. Unless your real **** and want to pay the high $$ that these can get for one with a Pentastar on it. You can go on any T-bird or Mustang resto site and find the same pump without the Pentastar for around $25-35. They were used on Fords from 63-68 If not 69. I know my 69 Fairlane I had, had the same pump. Why Mopar guys are are bending over and paying hugh amounts of coin is beyond me for a stupid little pump.
BTW- these are a AC/Delco part.

I bought a '66 style washer pump from Atlas Obsolete out of Temecula, CA and it leaked out of the box. Normally I would have called them for a return however they were a pain to deal with in the first place so I tossed it in the trash and rebuilt an original.
