The Binnacle had the rebuild kit but it cost almost as much as a new
pump......and the new pump seemed a breeze to install, which it was.

Bob,
Glad you went the new pump assembly route. I've been advocating that
over a rebuild kit for years.
I remove and clean the joker valve on my Jabsco compact a couple times
a year. It's a 10 minute job. I also flush with vinegar to reduce
scale build up also. It's a frequent job.

Recently, on port tack, my 'head bowl' was filling and overflowing
with sea water.....wasn't completely sure whether it was a faulty
'choker valve' or the valve in the 'shut off' lever....had to be
one or the other, probably a faulty valve in the 'shut off' switch.
Trip to Binnacle to check out possible solutions to the
problem.....simplest way to address it was to get a whole new
Jabsco pump assembly for $100.
One hour labor in total install new pump..... disconnect 3 hoses
from old pump, 4 screws in the base, screw new pump into place,
connect the 3 hoses.....one of the easiest boat jobs I have
experienced.
FYi for anyone having a similar problem.
