Hello,
I have a sea water leak from the transmission side of the seawater pump. So far I can't find if there is a rebuild kit and a new one costs an arm and a leg, see below. Does anyone know if there is a rebuild kit, or if they can be serviced using seperatly sourced O rings? Perhaps they can be traded in against a rebuilt pump, if it involves sleeving and reaming. I am not sure how they are built as the pump looks as if it is clamped onto the gear shaft, so I assume that it slides off. However, the new ones are sold with the gear, maybe suggesting that there is more to it, maybe a press fit. Does anyone have tips or experience for servicing these pumps?
