Ok, so most of you probably know about the 99p (+ £20 p&p) bosch pump i won from fleabay.
Ideally i was hoping to strip it down and rebuild it myself before fitting, but im struggling to find any kind of guide to stripping the thing down. Ive found a step by step guide to putting it back together, but working backwards through the process is a little confusing at the moment, maybe im just not reading it right.
My question to the diesel heads out there is, should i bother doing it myself, risking losing parts, or putting it back together wrong, or anything else that could go wrong, or should i have it done properly by someone who knows what they're doing?
My original thought was if i strip it down and do it myself, i can gain some more understanding to how they work, and what each part does.
The problem lies in the fact that i dont get on so well with reading manuals, unless i get stuck. I learn easier and faster by getting hands-on.
Thoughts people?
