[C320-list] Rebuild Raw water pump

[Jeff Hare]

Oh, my mistake. I should have checked to see when the euro versions started being used. 

I'll check this afternoon and see which pump model I got and what the price currently is from my source. I'm going there anyway to get some filters.

Jeff,
According to Torresen.com if my engine serial number starts with an 'E' I have a 
European engine, and mine does.  So they are saying the engine model number is 
3GM30FYEU, for a European version.  My old pump uses an o-ring instead of a 
gasket and the pump has no add- on elbows or a screw-in cam.  Does this sound 
like the pump you bought ?  If so where did you buy it ?
Torreson lists 2 pumps when you pull up the parts listings for 3GM30FYEU: 
    128397-42500     $237
    128377-42500     $250
Just to complicate the process they don't have any pictures to narrow the 
search.
Mike

I paid ~$175 through my local yanmar dealer. But this is for a 3GM30F European 
pump. You have the Japanese version. If it's alot more money for that model I 
would investigate upgrading to the model found on the euro model since it uses 
an O-ring instead of paper gasket for the cover seal. They look compatible.

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?
