[C320-list] Raw Water Pump

[Mark Seyler]

I did the same replacement on my 1995 No. 232, and second the recommendation of Transatlantic diesel.

The pump is gear driven, and the gear from the old pump needed to be transferred to the shaft of the new pump. I was able to borrow a gear puller at Auto-Zone.

 Although I didn't realize it at the time, my recollection is that the manual for the Perkins says you need to specially align the gear on the shaft, but doesn't specify exactly how.  I just lined it up about the same way the old one was, and haven't had any troubles since. But you may want to look into that before you start the job.
