1972 1800ES Rebuilding Oil Pump 1800

If the gears are good the scuffed end plate can be refaced. This face is critical to match the gear faces. Has to be perfect or oil pressure will be lost. But, the ends of the gears also wear and they should also be smooth. Again, wear equals loss of pressure. The pump face can also be refaced a bit to bring them closer to the end plate. Not for the faint of heart. Clearance should be a bit less than a tenth of a mm. I guess you could measure that with plastigauge?
Bottom line? Get a new one.
