Removing my first FWC pump!
My "previously loved" boat has a leak in her fresh water pump. It's a JABSCO, I have the impeller puller and the repair kit -- and I have absolutely ZERO idea how to safely/efficiently disconnect the pump from the belt and the engine itself.
I don't even know if I need a special tool, if I need to use force, if I need to utter the magical words, "Help me, Don Moyer, you're my only hope." Any suggestions? Good writeups? I've never removed an engine belt before in my life... |

It was! Pump removed, partially disassembled, hammered, battered, and replaced!
