Seized fuel pump killed sea pump shaft
Hi. Ive got a 95 Crownline with a stock 454 mag, mechanical fuel pump on the sea pump. I ran the boat out of fuel over the weekend. A few hours later my fuel pump seized and destroyed the lobe it rides on in the sea pump. Iv heard Holley makes fuel pumps for this application. Can anyone give me a part#? The impeller housing was just replaced, so Im woundering if i could just put a new shaft in the sea pump instead of buy the whole assembly for $500. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanx.

I have not seen a fuel pump take out the the shaft before but I have seen lack of oil in the housing or water in the housing take the shaft out. They sell all the parts to rebuild the fuel pump housing. It is kind of the most forgotten thing to service from what I seen.
