[C320-list] Freshwater pump leak

[Stephane Rousseau _/)]

Mine is leaking too.
I have the European 3GM30F. In Canada It's around 700$ for a new one :-(
Almost the price of outboard motor. So if anyone know where to find rebuilt
kit, I would go for that. Or any other option, like having a none Johson
replacement.
