PR Reilly are the agents. I would imagine that Autozone( (021)4354344) in Little Island would have it. I think I may have seen it there. Other than that local motor factors that deal with Reillys may have it.
Failing that Reillys are on line: http://www.team.ie/search_display.php?view=ALL

thanks JimC. Autozone didnt have it nor did a lot of the motor factors. Reilly's were very efficent. Ordered it online....had it the next day....postage and packing was free. thats what i call service. hopefully i can get corrosion problems in the water pump sorted now. thanks again :D

the jb weld seems good stuff. on deciding to change the impeller i got a shock when i lifted the plate underneath it. im not experienced in doing repairs like this but i decided to give it a go anyway. luckily i had a dremel drill which proved invaluable.

Looks like a nice repair... You might have had a little water ingress, so I would be inclined to remoce the drive shaft as well and check for corrosion or oxidation on the shaft. A light sand with some 800 grid wet and dry should sort it. New Gear oil and off you go.
