My boat has Lovett Bilge Pumps. The Lovett factory has no replacement belts in stock. Does anyone have an idea where a couple of drive belts might be found ?

The belts are for a Lovett 1200 Bilge pump. According to the factory and the packaging on previous set I purchased "Lovett Pumps Replacement Drive Belts" fits all Lovett Models. These are about 3" overall diameter when laid flat, are round in construction as opposed to corrugated or otherwise @ approximately 1/8" round belt diameter. Neoprene is the material needed. I believe Lovett part # is 3201.

Lovett seems pretty done in the biz but I'd love to not have to purchase and re-mount a different pump if possible.

That sounds like a standard O-ring...try having some one look up an AS568A -041 O-ring for you....its about that exact size...you can get them in different materials....if Neoprene is not avail then go with a Buna-N

actually....the you may be in the -232 / -233 / -234 range depending on how your measureing it.

i sent mine to lovett and had one rebuilt and he sold me another new one for rebuild price..

that was over a year ago. i don't know if they are closed for business or not. you might also find another oso member to drop them off in person for you if it's an option.

i hear ya on not wanting to replace them. i can find nothing in the stores that seems anywhere near as nice as those but they're not nice if you cant get parts or service.
