Are you sure it is getting a flow through the pipe. It sounds like you have
done what was needed. (Drill seems a bit over the top)


+1 as you've removed the jet, can you check there's a good flow
out the pipe? If not and the pumps working, there's a
leak...


Good point. The pumps do jamb. You can sometimes get them apart and clean
them. If not an it has jammed in the right position- so water can flow but
not pump- you can fit a generic pump from Halfords in the pipe and connect
the wires to it. I did the to my wifes old Mk1 Panda when I couldnt get a
Fiat pump.
