Has anyone any experience replacing the oil seal at the back of the Sherwood raw water pump? I have the replacement oil seal part number 18806, cost 20.82, it has a green outer casing and looks like it should slide right into the end of the pump body that faces the engine, however that bore seems to be just slightly smaller, is there maybe a trick to this? This is the universal M35, I realize lots have switched to the oberdorfer and I might eventually but just want to get this one back together for now, maybe get 1 or 2 more sails out of this year then call it a year. There wasn't much left of the old one that came out so can't even say what it even looked like, will be stripping the rest of the pump right down to clean out the remnants of the old one. Thanx very much.
