Help!!

Post by Shaun » Fri Nov 16, 2012 12:52 pm

Hi,
I am the owner of a Hotchkiss jeep (1960).
I've managed to put it into American spec with all the decals etc.
Having got it finished, I now have another problem...
...spare parts!
The engine in the Hotchkiss is a Peugeot 2.2 litre diesel.
There are no numbers on the engine for any more information, the engine is certainly a Peugeot and is quite old.
The water pump is now required to be changed.
Can anyone help?
I'm obviously looking for a water pump.
And any other usable spare parts.

Areyou in Europe/UK.

One of the French dealers will surely help. The Peugot conversion was common. Try Jeep Sud Est.

Hi shaun,

Not sure where you are but maybe if you got in touch with some of the Cietron / Peugeot specialists. There are a few in London and some dotted around teh country.

It is likeley to be a fairly common engine to be used in a jeep. do you know if it's a army conversion or home made?

Possibly try and compare with the Mahindra as that also uses a Peugeot Engine.

Cheers

Tony
