pas pump same as a 172 ?

is the williams pas pump the same as a 172 one ??

Not quite AFAIK. Think I was given one once by ECP and the garage couldn't get it to fit, despite it being very similar. Was more a problem with the pulley arrangment than the pump.

I've got a 172 pump on my mk1 ancillary brackets (although I'm using an F4R)

i had a good look at the mk1 and mk2 pumps and they certainly do seem to look identical and the 172 pump fits perfectly.

I am having a slight problem with the aux belt jumping over 1 tooth towards the engine, but not sure if its the PAS pump causing the problem

so u recon a 172 pump is the same mate.....going to gsf with a williams one to see if the 1.6 16v is the same

[Matty86]

I'm *fairly* sure mate

I had the two side by side and they seemed identical... they fit in the same, the pipe connections are the same, you can swap the pulleys too (the 172 one is much lighter though!)

only reason I'm still a bit unsure is .... why has no one else done it? :?

[northy]

no idea....right i will give it a go

How much is a 172 pump ?

no idea....right i will give it a go

How much is a 17poo pump ?

Not sure. I can only find the 1.2/1.4 pump listed on their site. That's just shy of £130.
