I don't have my catalogues in front of me, but I believe there are two types of water pumps for the MGB's.

5. Re: HOT HEAD (score: 1): Author: dave@stargazer.pacdata.com (David Ambrose); Date: Wed, 4 Aug 93 14:54:16 PDT; Good advice, but I'd add one caveat.

Vinegar will neutralize odiferous chemicals. Use very liberally. I would remove the seat, carpeting and the covers for treatment.
