Yanmar raw water pump?

[lipets]

Mine is leaking (works fine no overheating) it looks like almost $800 for a new one, mechanic says takes 6 hours to replace??? find that hard to believe

It it reasonable to take on the task of rebuilding it, and are kits available?

It's a 6LY2A-STP

Only way I can see that being a billable 6 hour project is access. If you have to tear other parts off to get to it,then I can see how that could be the case. I'd post a pic to show the pump access.

Access is not hard at all I see the bolts, think he's not the guy I want.

Or I'll do it myself. The hardest thing is to remove the hoses

Anyone know who may rebuild these pumps

You may like to check the service manual, if access is easy.
I did my Westerbeke 30B and access was painful.
Once out there is not much to it and the repair kits have all parts needed, just a thought.
