Normally a dry fit, but Reliant engineering's pretty basic. I'm sure a suitable sealant wouldn't do any harm.

Removed the top and the pin that holds the cam follower, then took out the gubbins. The diaphragm is removed by rotationg it by 90 degrees. To my suprise I found a lovely steel wowl below the diaphragm. The bottom of the bowl had a ring of aluminium coming back up. The ally ring was milled away using the dremmel and the hole which the diphragm shaft goes through was made bigger so the oil will be able to flow more easily.

I had hoped to use a Radiator cap as the oil filler cap, and found that the rubber ring of the cap fits snugly part way down the steel bowl. Perfik!

So I made a ring for the upper seal of the cap to fit down onto. Th eplan is to make a lower ring that will bolt onto the pump body, and connect the 2 with a short piece of pipe.

The gasket to fit the new assembly will be cut out of the old diaphragm, as it is already the right fit Wink

Couldn't you just have a flange plate and tube with a bung out at 45 degrees?
Or iz this a feature to resemble the original ?
