Sea Water Pump rebuild question
Is the bearings and seals hard to change in this set up?
Looks like I need to replace part numbers 15-16 and 19 shown below.

Are you sure that is the problem? Have you pulled it apart yet?
Only reason I ask is because I had one lock up the other day to the point the enginen wouldn't turn over - I assumed I had burned the bearings out of it and when I pulled it apart I had torn up the impellor which had lodged and prevented the thing from turning over. 50 dollar impellor kit and 20 minutes and I was back up and running..

The seal is bad between the impeller and the bearings.
