hi all ,
got a leak from the washer bottle behind the bumper ('53 3.2 elite)
Now bumper & bumper bar are off , I can see it is leaking from around the rubber grommet/seal between the pump & the bottle.
The pump itself does not seem to be a firm fit in the "push in" clamp moulded into the bottle or indeed into the rubber grommet/seal.
The pump looks fairly new , so wondering if it is the wrong one :-\
part no. on the pump is GM 90 508 707 with Textron 19222 written below that .
can anyone look up the correct part No. and see these numbers correspond to the pump that should be fitted .
If so & pump is correct one , it must be the grommet/seal worn ::) . . or wrong rubber seal :D :D
TIA Al :y

90508709 on the facelift
My mistake Rob . . . :-[ :-[ :-[ just checked & that is what is fitted 90508709 ( I gave wrong No. in original post :-[)
The pump seems very slack when clipped into position & easily slides up & down . If you gently push downwards on it . .
the leak stops . . as you release the pump rises up slightly & leaks starts again .
it seems pump body is too slim or the rubber seal/grommet is not tight enough.
Could you possibly find a part No. for the grommet ?

Ignore that Al, that`s for the windscreen pump. I`ll try and find # for what you need

Here you go Al. # 90053056 Although a rubber grommet, it`s referred to as the pump to reservoir gasket ???

Got a picture Rob ? as can't see a filter . Pump pulls out & leaves the black rubber "grommet" in situ. This pulls out from the Bottle/tank but is just a round rubber grommet. it does have a raised ring which looks like it could be the "seal" to the bottle.
Leak is occuring between top of grommet & the pump body . Possibly something missing her I think :-\
EDIT: just seen your last post . . but a pic would still be helpful ;)

thanks Rob .
looks exactly what is fitted here. Pump & grommet. I'll try a new grommet first as the pump pulls easily out of the grommet .
Thanks again for the help & the pics . :y :y

No probs :)

Could try three turns of tape around the pump body between the seal and the first clip on the bottle...

hi Al, yer was thinking along those lines . Pump pulls out of the grommet very easily . Seem to recall that usually the grommet would come away from the bottle with the pump when pulled out. End of the day a new grommet/seal should not be much :P :P

Al.
I had a similar issue with my Headlight Washer Pump as the reservoir would empty even without using the washer .Traced mine to the pump not seating into the rubber grommet properly.
Cure I found was to put a few wraps of PTFE tape around the end of the pump then push the rubber grommet onto the pump end.Then fitted the entire assembled unit into the hole in the reservoir and it solved the leak and hasnt lost a drop since. :y

Hi Andrew, My pump seems a slack fit into the grommet . . . Will try the PTFE tape then . . . :y

I had to buy one of those in the past. After removal could never get it to seal again. New one. And perfection returned
