Managed to finally work up the courage to fix the coolant impeller pump seal on the DRZ400.
Everything went surprisingly well, except when I went to put that little spring clip back on the shaft at the plastic gear on the back side of the pump housing. It stretched. I got it into place, and pinched it tight with pliers.
Is that sufficient? Or do I need to source that tiny clip and replace it? Of course, I've already put the clutch cover and pump housing back on the bike . . .
Hoping to get old yeller put together to help out on race day.

Me and tools have an understanding: If I don't use them, they don't break my stuff.
Will it be a problem? Probably not, but ideally it shouldn't have been stretched to the point it wouldn't stay on. Bending back once on won't be the same as a new one.
What would happen is said clip came off? That would be the bigger question.
Got the cover off and the clip off again. Will head to Trans Supply tomorrow to get a few of the little buggers.
