The motor turns but nothing comes out so I took it apart...

...and this is what it looks like inside the pump. Seems to be missing parts. I would like to salvage the original pump, does anyone have any experience with this? Perhaps there is an easy rebuild. I hope

Thanks!

These guys show to have some NOS pumps, but they aren't cheap. $45 for just the pump, $225 if you want the pump, lid, and bottle.

Thank you Jafir, I did see that page in my searches but their pump is quite different from mine and actually, I am hoping to rebuild my original if possible.

Default My cheap solution

Here is how I solved the problem. I bought a universal washer pump from eBay for £4.

I removed the old pump by drilling out the rivets then removed the mounting bracket on the new pump and fitted it in the same position. Some slight plumbing alterations to the tubing and it works perfectly.
