Aquapart half the price of Keypart for KAD43 impellers

[DavidJ]

Just searching around at impeller prices for my KAD43 (part number 877061) and am comparing:
Keypart £29.18
Aquapart £13.98
Has anyone out there used Aquapart?

Yes I bought 2 last year for my AD31's same part as KAD43 I think, seems ok so far, bought lots of other bits as well bellows, filters etc...

Thanks Chris, I've just put an order through......great website as well.

Yes, I bought from them last year. I called them first and asked about them being so cheap. They said they came from the same factory in Italy as VPs, but in their own plain packaging. They seem to be identical and haven't failed. I've just bought another set from them.

Excellent, all seems a bit cheaper that keypart. Will give them a go.

Thanks

The cheapest isnt always the best, Aquapart might give a good service and useful advice I can not comment as I have not used them but I have always found Keypart very helpful and more importantly very knowledgable. I bought a complete Separ fuel filtration system from keypart last year and their help and advice was second to none. I might have found something cheaper if I had looked, I do not know but I could not have received better service and sometimes that is more important.

Have used Aquapart many times over last few years for basic consumerables,impellors,hoses,bellows etc,perfectly OK for basic not complicated replacement stuff.
Have also used Keypart for for complicated stuff fast service.
Have recently used this lot Tricket for very cheap replacement exhaust risers.
About half Volvo price and delivered within 24 hours.

Spoke to a nice lady at Aquapart and they have all the bits I need at good price so was about to place my order when she asked what oil I have in the legs???? "Leg oil of course" I said. "You sure" she said. I asked what else would it be and apparently sometimes it's just engine oil and whatever you've got you are supposed to stick with. She explained that I need to drain a bit of oil and smell it. If it smells of oil the it's engine oil, if it smells nasty then it's leg oil. So hats off to them for not just taking my money.

SP Drives can use engine oil. Duoprops need the API-GL5 fully synthetic stuff.
