If you read the Bentley they tell you that you can damage the crank by not using the 3149 to hold the pulley.
I bought one one years ago when I built my 1.9 and it's been sitting so long I lost a piece for it.
When you put the larger pump in did you check the clearance between the gears and the surface of the pump with a feeler gauge?
