Ditto Rob's comment. I was a boat repair guy for 15 years. If the issue is in the pump assembly, replace the entire pump assembly! The assembly is usually only a few bucks more than the rebuild kit. It was ALWAYS cheaper for my clients. However, several still wanted me to put in a repair kit.
Do the math. 0.5 hours for me to change a pump assembly. 1.0-1.5 hours to remove pump assembly, install rebuild kit, re-install rebuilt pump assembly. Then there's the possibility that the pump cylinder is scored, the non-replaceable valve sealing surfaces are scratched or gouged or some other issue with the thing that may cause the rebuild to fail. -- Dennis C.
