water pump follow-up

[Tom Glennon]

Gentlemen: here is a little fyi regarding DEPCO Pumps Company:  I found the personnel to be very helpful, and they had the parts I needed for my Sherwood M5 waterpump which, by the way, Sherwood themselves no longer carried. The only thing I would like to caution all of you about is... if you can obtain a part locally from a bearing shop, etc., do so! The rebuilding of the pump calls for two lip seals.  DEPCO sent me one... for $19 and change.  I obtained the second one form a local bearing supply company for $5.25! Ouch.  But, at least the DEPCO company had the all-important shaft, and the carbon bushing that was necessary.
