Came as a package. It's either poor connections of its busted. I tried heating it with a blow torch bit still no reading .
To make matters worse I snapped a bolt off in the manifold removing it!!!!

Yeah it's very simple can't fathom it though maybe it's knackered.

Supplier suggests a volt meter at the gauge end of the thermo to see what it's reading. Trouble is I don't have a volt meter. I do now have a brand new tap and die set though!!!

You'll need a bigger garage soon Coffeelandy with all these new tools you keep buying . I brought one of those cheap made in China ones was useless so brought a stack one and that's been spot on , everything you need is in the box .

I got one from Screwfix for 30 quid. Good reviews mostly saying go very slowly and use oil and it works well!

Sorted it. The fecking instructions told me to wire it up the wrong way around! Really helpful supplier though I must say, very attentive with advice. Anyway now I can put the boost ring in and report the findings.

Erm English but via China I reckon. They had the word greed instead of green for the wiring plan!

Reet... thought I would give it a try today... my pump looks a bit different to all the pics - it has a black plastic item attached to the top of the pump. But more importantly, I cant seem to remove the old pin and diaphragm. The guide pin seems to be fouling the bottom of the boost pin, such that it doesn't want to release. I don't want to try brute force, so is there a knack to this?
