I am having problems getting my water pump to work. For the impeller, i used 2 mercury impellers that stacked nicely and fit into the water pump body snugly. I couldn’t spin the impeller in water so I disconnected the motor leg from the powerhead and was able to put a drill on the drive shaft and spin in a bucket of water. N0 wAny ideasater coming out of the water tube. All tubes and openings are clear. I have not found part #37 (water pump gasket) which appears to sit on top of the water pump body and seats the drive shaft coupler. Would this gasket keep the pump from working? Any ideas as to where I could find this gasket and maybe an impeller? From the parts diagram, I can’t see how the gasket would keep from getting chewed up by the drive shaft. Any ideas or information would be greatly appreciated.
