I am trying to help Shawn Wright in   Shawn--i--gan  Lake  do his pump.

First be careful take it slow.----if you are stuck just phone me.   ----parts are available
from Valley Injection  ---you may twist the arm of Island Injection.

I shall tell you some tests to run before taking anything apart.      In any case get
an impact screwdriver  -----a faily good one cost  about   16.00 Dollars Canadian.

If you can get hold of a can of Diesel Purge ---it works pretty good.   For cleaning interior
of pump.  There may be better stuff.    Anyway get a new stub shaft assembly for
cold shaft ---very cheap. Two screws and nothing is connected to it inside pump.

It comes with two new Orings.   Do the pump step by step.    And my suggestion is do not hot
tank block if it is a caustic tank----like a boilout tank. A good chemical steamcleaning will do.

Is the pump a four cylinder ?.    Keep in mind that Governor shaft and locknut  ---
IS LEFT HAND thread.

All the tools needed for taking a pump apart are at your fingertips.  BUT do not do it
just yet.        BUT get a pack of ParoWax  and soon you will need som locktite.

Hagar.

PS : and let the FUN begin.
