1972 1800ES Rebuilding Oil Pump 1800

Unless a customer specifies differently, we only use the cast iron Melling oil pump. We also always install an IPD re-enforcing ring although we only seen Volvo and aftermarket aluminum pumps experience shaft tip failures.

The problem you experienced with the IPD re-enforcing ring is due to the fact that the end of the distributor drive shaft is a little wider than the oil pump shaft. So for easier fitment, we always grind a little off the sides of the distributor drive gear right at the end of the shaft.
