[C320-list] C320-list Digest, Vol 3232, Issue 1 raw water pump

[Greg Flanagan]

Tom,

It’s not your impeller. Take out the water pump, it’s fairly easy to do and take it to a marine machine shop to have it rebuilt. Save the impeller and put it back in. I did this two yearS ago and it only cost ~ $100. When you bring it to the shop. When they leak they are telling you they need a rebuild or replacement. A new one cost $500. Mine has worked great again for two seasons so far.

When it went back in the water in the spring it would draw but it was leaking so I replaced the impeller again as well as cleaning up the surfaces. It stilled leaked. I am thinking it is the impeller shaft seal and am trying to replace it but having difficulty finding the right one.  Just thinking buying a whole new pump would be a lot easier.

>> For what its worth - possibly irrelevant - I always replace the impeller every year, as well as the cover gasket. They are both low cost items and it seems worth it for peace of mind.
