water pump housing

[KiwiDave]

Does anyone know where I can source the little shims that fit on the studs? I can only seem to find them at Mazdatrix and they would like to charge £22 to ship 2 tiny shims and a gasket.

Part number 1757 15 106

The missing shims are the cause of a very small coolant leak.

Will see if I have any in my spare engine bits pile..

Apparently, they should be fitted on the two studs that don't have a gasket. They are meant to compensate for the gasket thickness and keep the housing on a level plane. Thanks in advance for looking.

Thanks for looking guys. I have some now. Rather innocent looking things but so important and easy to miss.
