I've burned out the motor of my Rule 500gph Aerator Pump but can't figure out how to remove it. It's situated up against the rear transom (inside the rear hatch) near the sump pump, so it's hard to see and get to. I've removed the hose from the pump leading to the well, but the pump won't budge either by trying to turn it or by pressing down on it. It has the clip holes but no tabs to press, and no screen or quick disconnect so just the pump motor can be replaced. I bought the 17' '06 Sea Fox second hand and the pump recently burned out, but don't know if it's a straight connect or side. There doesn't seem to be any kind of bracket, so I thought it must screw in, but no luck so far.
I went to West Marine in Venice, Fla. but they are no help except to sell me a new pump and motor (which does me no good if I can't get the old one out!). Any help would be greatly appreciated!
