[C320-list] Freshwater pump leak/Reply

[P & B Sheerin]

Thanks Jeff. I tried to purchase the part in US from Boatswains Locker. They 
advised me they couldn't sell part outside US. Apparently some Yanmar 
policy, as they don't want to cut out the local dealer. What Rubbish !!
According to the Yanmar manual, they don't recommend re building it.
Anyhow if you know where I can source one, it would be much appreciated. 
Might try West Marine.
My Yanmar is a 2006 Model 3YM30, Engine # EO4526
Peter, Jaraman # 1096.
