OBERDORFER

[PAUL T.]

Happy Holidays everybody!!!!!  Can anybody please tell me where I can find the best price on an  OBERDORFER water pump. Thanx in advance...........PAUL

[captran]

got mine through Lewis Marine in St Lucie Florida.  I know they ship anywhere.  They also sell the gasket that sits between the face plate and the pump body.  I don't know if it's the best price, but it was very reasonable, I think about 125, but I'd have to check my engine log receipts to see if it's in there to be sure of the price.

The source is DEPCO.

This is already in the 1999 tech notes.

Paul : Call DEPCO at (800)445-1656 - they're in Florida.  They'll ask you the model of your pump.  
Not having your hull # or year I'll guess that it's a "202-M15".  That model is distinctive in that it has 5 mounting holes, but only 4 are used.  

DEPCO also gives you the best price on Oberdoffer parts.

Thanx for the quick comeback CAPTRAN,STU, and RON.  It never ceases to amaze me what a great website this is. The knowledge I have gained from you guys has allowed me to do things I never would have dreamed of doing on my own, and saved me thousands of dollars......THANX AGAIN PAUL #766......

For general info, another place I have used for parts is Torresen Marine (www.marinedieseldirect.com).  Don't know how the prices compare, but I do know that an impeller is enough cheaper than West or Boat/US that it pays for the shipping, and it shows up at your door.

FYI......... I just received my new water pump from DEPCO $220.00. Be advised that if you order one make sure that it is the new model. The number is N202 M-15, the faceplate has an "O" ring instead of the old gasket and the removable cam has been replaced by a molded in cam. It looks beefier. You might want to hold on to the old impeller shaft with impeller attached for a quick change in an emergency............PAUL
