Water pump
Hi everyone,
I have a 20' Regal bowrider with a 4.3 engine I/O. My question is I have a leak in the water pump and it needs to be replaced. Do I need to buy a water pump from a marine parts store or can I get it at an automotive store? Is there any difference in the part purchased at either store? Or is it just the price? Thanks, Ken -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Babbling Brook Photography Quality Framed Photography of the Great Outdoors. 30 Day Money Back Guarantee! http://www.babblingbrookphotography.com |

Water pump
The marine one is more corrosion resistant. If you boat only in fresh water
the automotive one will still last a long time. "Babbling Brook Photography" wrote in message ... Hi everyone, I have a 20' Regal bowrider with a 4.3 engine I/O.

Water pump
I use the boat only in fresh water, but it sounds like the automotive part
will work just fine.

Water pump
Just make sure all the fittings are the same. The automotive may have an
extra fitting that the marine does not have. -- Tony my boats at http://t.thomas.home.mchsi.com "Babbling Brook Photography" wrote in message ...
