If I remember right you're an engineer at a power plant.
You must have something called "post maintenance testing" or some variation of those words after something is repaired. Just say that you're now a little smarter based on your experience ![]() |

As always, I am happy that I checked here for info on rebuilding a G20. I am in the process of disassembling mine and have run into these same issues. I originally referenced the instructions on the Sherwood site, but they are not completely accurate. I was atempting to remove the pin in the pulley and decided to check her for info. I have been taking pictures every step to make sure I can get everything back together correctly.

I’m glad that my water pump only weeps like a Bears fan. I’m going to wait until it weeps like a Packer’s fan before I rebuild it.

Gary,
How did you remove the steel retaining housing? I am struggling to get mine out, do you reuse it? ![]() |

I’m going to use the money I will save by not going to a packers playoff game to have the guy from Illinois on eBay rebuild my pump this winter.

I just gently used a small chisel and a punch to deform it and pull and pry it out, it is part of the seal assembly so a new one is included with the seal kit.

Thanks, did you use the Sherwood Major Repair Kit 12665?

No I did 3 pumps at the same time and did not need everything so I bought what I needed separately looking for best price. 2 pumps are spares sitting on a shelf so I did not want impellers sitting in them . If you buy for example “Sherwood “ bearings they can be upwards of 28 dollars, I got the same NTN’s for around 13.
