Fitted the new lift pump today. It was a simple job except the new pump did not have the brass compression olives in the box with the pump and new gasket. Of course by the time I discovered this the old pump was off the Disco,and the local supplier was about to close. A quick phone call to my son to run me up there.We made it with minutes to spare.
So to anyone replacing a lift pump check for the olives before you dismantle.

Sorry, I forgot that. Nuts also missing on the Paddocks replacement I got so had to cut the pipes off the old one (which I couldn't re-fit when I found the new one did not fit without bending the pipes!). The gland is a standard one as used in plumbing so a builders' merchant would probably have one.
