Where would I purchase the materials to rebuild it?



I guess it's something to consider before I sell the engine. My intentions right now are to get everything in line to start the swap.

I'm not sure...might try your local auto parts stores...but they're usually as helpful as a box of rocks when it comes to our cars...



Mazdatrix has a "PUMP METERING GASKET" listed for 2.09...very cheap...but it probably won't stop leaking...and if its leaking atleast you know its still working

True, I think I will try a gasket, that's what I meant, not a grommet. Thanks for the help!

http://www.loweperformance.com/ " Oil metering pump reseal kits $10 up to 1988. " They also have oring gaskets since that's also a common leak.



And as for the plastic lines, I replaced mine because they were very brittle and broke when i took the emissions off. I replaced them with stainless steel break lines (not braided stainless, just breakline tubes) Bend them into shape and you're off! Looks really nice too, and much more rugged than plastic. I'm gonna clean it up for a show in two weeks and maybe i'll post some pictures so you guys can see 'em in action.

The 1st gen OMP I put on my 20B leaks too, even with a new gasket. That's just from gravity. If it doesn't get any worse once it's running, I'll live with it. Kinda doubtful though.

Yeah those plastic lines are crappy. I might do that as well.



Thanks for the info.
