Re: Rebuilding VRO pump. Sealer?
Seahorse, <br /><br />My service manual P/N 507616 Which is supposed to cover my engine doesn't have a section on rebuilding the fuel pump.<br /><br />The manual states it's for "CU" 35A thru 55. I have a J40TLCUD, which is supposed to be a 1987. BUT the manual is copywrited in 1986 and the one pic of the fuel pump shows the one with the cover on the side that you can remove.<br /><br />The pump I'm working on has P/N 174570 imprinted on it. That's listed as the correct pump everywhere I've checked.<br /><br />I bought the boat/motor new in late 1986 and I had it in the shop just a few times during the first year I had it. Don't remember any major replacement of parts. Had a after break-in check up by the dealer and a before season tune up. After that I took over maintenace. So as far as I know the original pump is on there.<br /><br />Do you (or any one) have a link or source for the rebuild instructions?<br /><br />BTW, I'm working on a spare pump I got cheap on ebay. It's identical in configuration and part number to the one that's on the engine.<br /><br />It's really kind of simple to assemble, but I am always open to hints, tricks and advice.
