Looks like I will be able to get it off as its got taps either side of

replaced that last year too with electronic one, as it doesn't appear
to be independantly fused ...

Sounds like you're making *some* progress. Is it possible that - due to your
wiring changes - the pump isn't being told to run? Can you get at its
connections to make sure that they're live when they should be, or can you
temporarily wire it into a 13A plug to see whether it runs when you *know*
it has power? [Even if you can't get a screwdriver in, you may be able to
get a finger in to check whether the spindle is going round.]
It doesn't make a sound when wired directly... its a dodo
Just sourced a wylo (£30 something) locally as its cheaper than the
original grundfos (£57 yikes) ...
Do I have to bleed air out once the new one is in? Getting to the back
of the boiler is nearly impossible ? or maybe I can just bleed it out of
the radiators
