I need to replace the impellers on my boat.

I have twin 3116 Caterpillars and a 5KW Westerbeke generator.

I have the part numbers for each manufacturer.

The Cats call for a Sherwood 17000K impeller
The generator manual doesn't specify a manufacturer, but their part number
is 034440.

I've been looking for a cross reference chart for Jabsco or some other
popular brand so that I can compare these numbers. I seem to find mostly
Jabsco impellers in the stores, but have no idea what Jabsco part number I
need. I feel sure that they make both of these impellers. I'm not
committed to Jabsco, but they seem to be the most popular in my area.

Any idea where to look?

Thanks!

What's your time worth? By the time you find an aftermarket impeller for
40% off, you wasted hours doing so.

I'm not looking for an aftermarket impeller to save 40%. They just don't
have the ones that I need in any stores that I've been in. They DO have
Jabsco impellers. They DON'T have a cross reference chart. That's what I'm
looking for. I mean, If I have to , I could order them online somewhere,
but I'd rather just stop by a marine supply center and pick them up this
weekend, when I would like to change them out.

It would help if you had the pump manuf and model numbers. Just knowing the
engines/genset will only help you if you want to order them from the
original engine/gen builder. Knowing they are cats and westerbeke doesn't
tell anyone enough to know exactly what pumps were used. It's a pain though
as you might be able to find the info you want on the pumps but will
probably have to remove them to figure it out.

You aren't likely to find what you are looking for in a boating supermarket
type store. Find a Caterpillar dealer and Westerbeke dealer, or a place that
specializes in pumps. For more information, try this link.

Hey Ted, I "googled" the part number that you gave and it mentioned on the
page that came up that it fits a Sherwood 17000. It does not say 17000K. I
have absolutely no idea what the K is for and it's probably not even used in
this cross reference, but where did you get the cross reference? I'd like
to look there for the Westerbeke impeller (034440) as well. Thanks very
much for looking that up!

Gary
