Thomas,

 

I think you will find eBay to be the cheapest source. Or perhaps Amazon.

 

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rebuild-Kit-For-Sherwood-Pump-G701-Onan-132-0358/112375609437?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D52935%26meid%3Db193ea3b8812496c970fd418bfe0bf42%26pid%3D100623%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D3%26sd%3D122448674645%26itm%3D112375609437&_trksid=p2047675.c100623.m-1

 

However for the price of the kit and shipping etc, I’d replace the whole pump for the extra $75.

 

 

With best regards,

Duane, Craig, Bill, Mark and al,

 

Thanks for the info, very useful !

 

Does anyone has a good reference/source for the major rebuild kit for that pump? 

 

Thanks

Duane,

Actually, you're right - it is easy-peasy and you definitely don't need to go to the expense of a shop rebuilt. I agree with Mark that having two pumps works great - you can rebuild one at your leisure after popping the new one on. I do this with both my genset and my main engine water pumps - have rebuilt them both many times over the years.

In lieu of a press you can just carefully tap out the shaft using a socket from your socket wrench set as a "pusher". On reassembly you may want to put parts in the freezer and/or hot water to make them go together more easily. Sourcing parts is easy.

Have fun with it!

Cheers, Craig Briggs

Bill R.,

 

Thank for your post.  I actually had a rebuild kit on board (memory is an occasional thing for me these days it seems) and though easi-peasi, just rebuild the pump!  But it will take a shop to get this one apart.

 

I agree with you, another pump is the way to go.
