37 to 48 Water Pumps Rebuild.
Have dismantled 2 water pumps ex 85 HP engine. All intact nil broken pulleys etc.
Have 2 pump repair kits, Dennis Carpenter 78-8591 (Made in China).
The impeller is not fitted to shaft. There is a hole towards the end of one end with a supplied taper pin. However nil hole through impeller to align with hole location in shaft. Also the bronze bush as supplied in the kit is 6 mm longer than bush as removed from old pump. Suspect extra length to allow for slightly different pump seal.
Maybe just to press shaft into impeller and forget about the taper pin as nil line up hole at impeller body.
Appreciate advice. The press in fit of shaft into impeller with be secure.
Van Pelt has these kits also with the taper pin.
Here down under in NZ to send pumps to US shipping is out there.
Can get new pumps but why not rebuild old ones as have a few of them.
Have already done 2 truck type pumps, no drama, thanks to good advice from this forum.
