water pump lead

[ksturmann]

I have a realtively recent raw water pump that is leaking between the pum housing and cove. Does this pump take a gasket?

Thank you.

It depends on the vintage of your pump. Our MMI flexible impeller pump and the latest Oberdorfer N202M7 pumps (product number CSOB_00_365 and CSOB_01_62 in our online catalog) both have o-rings to seal their back plates. All other flexible pumps that have been used on the Atomic 4 do use thin gaskets between the housing and the back plate.
