[C320-list] Rebuild Raw water pump

[Bruce]

Mike,
If you have a vice and some sockets it is not that hard to press the new bearings into place.

Don,
I am looking for a replacement myself for a Yanmar 3GM30F.  Couple of people 
have recommended Torresen.com for Johnson pumps.  Mine appears to run about 
$250, but I'm not sure because my pump has no model number on it.
The rebuild kit runs about $100 but requires you to press bearings onto the 
shaft. Don't know how tough that would be.

Had to replace a raw water pump this weekend. I think the seal went south. Is it 
difficult and worth it to rebuild a Johnson pump from a Yanmar 3YM30?
