Raw water pump w/coolant

[Puddlejumper540]

CANNOT remove impeller, completely fused to shaft so replacing the entire water pump. Problem, is I can’t find the equivalent pump ANYWHERE in stock. Current pump has an extra outflow for cooling the fuel pump. All i can find is the standard inlet/outlet pump. Has anyone else had this problem or have a solution? Is the coolant to the fuel pump standard and/or necessary? See photo below. Thanks for your help. We are dying to get back in the water!

Water cooling the fuel pump is required. It looks like they drilled and tapped a standard pump, probably much easier than getting a custom pump manufactured. Another alternative is that you get a standard pump and add a tee after the pump. Then pump the fuel pump water line to that.

Where are you located? Our local distributor shows 27 in stock.

Shoot some wd-40 around the outside of the impeller between it and the housing and then also on the impeller shaft. Bump the motor over and use this tool to remove it: https://www.amazon.com/johntruck-660...xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==

Tried the wd-40 and impeller puller, no success. I bought the boat used last summer, dealer said he changed the impeller, I’m thinking he’s full of crap.

I was able to find one on backorder, hoping it’ll be back in stock soon. Lee I’m in NC, can you pass me the number or url for your local dealer?

Thanks for your replies

Thanks Lee!

I’ve found PB blaster to work really good on getting stuff to break loose, but not sure how much better than WD-40. Worth a shot, either way.
