I know RWS doesn't sell them any more, but there is someone to contact to get the adapter. I haven't found anywhere else that makes anything quite like that. I am toying around with the idea of building a small tube that runs from the back of the pump inside the front cover to a small barb that sits above the pump. it will accomplish the same thing, maybe not cost as much, and leave me with that feeling of accomplishment.




The line would have to run out of the cover no higher than the pump itself because the balancer spinning in the front would tear it apart and send little metal fragments through your engine. There is a small notch where the drive comes out and meets the pump. I don't have a pump right here to tear parts to figure out what flows there. I think it only helps lubricate the pump's drive assembly, so should not interfere with the metered oil. I'll look into it more when I pull a pump off of one of the cars monday.
