I was following the thread on Norge oil pump failures. I have a red Norge from the first batch into the US, same batch as Bill Hagan. I know Bill had the pump fail, and others have experienced this too. Having no dealer nearby, I'm thinking about possibly replacing the rotor before a problem happens. Is this doable for the reasonably adventurous home mechanic, or is it a "shop-only" deal?
My understanding is that failed pumps all exhibited a fractured rotor as the primary cause of failure. Is this correct, and is the part easy to access for replacement?
I'm really contemplating a preemptive strike here.
