We achieve this by procuring the absolute best quality pump available, machining the pump housing to accept an O-ring, and capping it off with our custom Super Seal Oil Pump Cover. \u003cem\u003eNo more wish-I-could-get-this-silly-paper-gasket-to-stop-leaking gasket!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits: \u003c\/strong\u003eAll 1983-91 Vanagon Waterboxer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• 30mm high-volume pump with pre-checked pump gear \u0026amp; shaft*\u003cbr\u003e• GoWesty O-ring modification**\u003cbr\u003e• Custom \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Super Seal Oil Pump Cover\" href=\"https:\/\/gowesty.com\/products\/gowesty-super-seal-low-pro-oil-pump-cover-kit?variant=43992227217573\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eGoWesty Super Seal Pump Cover\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Bolts, O-rings and sealing crush washers to replace the leak-prone stud\/sealing nut combination\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gowesty.com\/blogs\/article-library\/waterboxer-oil-pump-the-whole-story?_pos=1\u0026amp;_sid=ac02b9fb3\u0026amp;_ss=r\" title=\"Oil Pump: The Whole Story\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCheck out our full Oil Pump Article.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"x_xxmsonormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e*We have found over the years (the hard way) that the press-fit between the driven pump gear and the shaft that drives it can vary to the point where the gear can literally spin on the shaft causing all sorts of hard to diagnose oil pressure issues, and even engine seizure. So, we developed a special tool to test each and every driven gear\/shaft fit by applying a torque to the gear. We have flunked as many as 50% on some of the brands we have sold in the past because the gear press fit does not pass our test. This test adds very little to the price we charge for our pumps, but the value to you can be enormous. We are always striving to find the best pump on the market, and if we ever find one with gears that check out good 100% of the time: We can finally stop checking them! Yeah, GoWesty has your back.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e**Between the pump body and cover we have added an O-ring to replace the gasket. We do not install additional O-rings between the pump body and engine block bore (the “triple o-ring” idea) because all they do is plumb the pressure side of the pump to the suction side and which actually reduces the pump efficiency.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePro tip: \u003c\/b\u003eOn our rebuilds, we don’t use any of the gaskets that come in the box with the pump.
