Pump gone Bad

[Guest Sopowerclean]

Has anyone ever ordered a pump from Enviro Spec? My pump has gone bad and i need a new one and they have reasonable price compared to local purchase. If anyone has ordered from them what, if any problems did you have.

How bad is your pump? Did it blow a rod? If all the damage is in the front end, a rebuild would probably be cheaper.

it has water in the oil and it leaks water where the head bolts to body of pump. it is a legacy pump. is it hard to rebuild one?. i have never rebuilt one but would love to try.

Pumps aren't too hard to rebuild if you watch how you take it apart. Inspect plungers closely for cracks - sometimes difficult to see, especially on brown plungers. Coat everything with grease when you put it back together, and make sure you put everything in pointing the right way...I have seen people install packing backwards...don't work too good lol. Sometimes the hardest part is disassembly. The brass rings can get glued into the holes with water deposits, etc, and don't want to come out. I have had to use a slide hammer bearing puller to remove them. Give me the model of your pump and I'll see if I can find a breakdown for you.

What Kind of pump?

[Russ Johnson 141]

Legacy...imported by Tuff Mfg. to replace the Admiral..gives them exclusivity (how's that for a 50 cent word) to sell parts. Tuff's out of business, but the parts are still available for both pumps.

why not go back with a General. You can get a General TS2021 from WaterCannon for a really good price.
