The pump gears on mine in my T4 seems to score the alumium cover is this the norm or do it neeed some clearance? I pulled apart my pump to check for anything out of the normal and found mild scoring on pump cover.

Thanks in Advance
No guru here, but I just happen to use the CB schadeck DS pump in my daily 412 which has a 914 2.0 engine installed.
Actually, the engine came with the pump and I didn't modify anything. Considering the things done to that engine I doubt the PO modified anything either.
Upon assembly/disassembly I noticed just the usual very slight scoring (=normal imo) on the alu cover. Yes, I just used/reinstalled the original Claude's Buggies alu cover it came with...
Don't have any pressure readings for you as I don't have a sender/gauge for that in the car, but it runs fine and I did some 10.000 km's already with it this way. Considering I also use the Pauter rockers on this engine, whch have 8x 1.0mm holes in the adjuster screws where the splash lubrication oil escapes, I'd say pressure in normal operation should probably be more then sufficient.
Sandeep used one as well on his turbo type 4 2.0 engine.

Hope this helps you some,
greets,
Walter
