Need to replace my water pump
My water pump has started leaking. It was made in 08/1990, so it's probably time. The original pump was a Shurflow 2088-403-144. This is a 3-chamber pump that shuts off at 45 PSI and does 2.8 GPM...

UGH! Our first coach had low point drains that pulled up with a little steel ring as the handle. Crimped to the tubing, under a cabinet, hard to get at. Water leaked up past the stem when the pressure was on with the valve closed. Soaked the carpet. Been so long, I forget how I fixed it. I remember I first tried a rubber furniture tip over the stem, pull ring removed, held with hose clamp. It held shore tie water pressure with regulator, but NOT pump pressure. Been too long to remember what I did next.
This was before I heard about SharkBite fittings. If the PEX tubing is cut off clean and square, all you have to do is push the SB fitting in place. The actual SB stuff seems to be brass, but there are now other fittings using the SB design. I added a supply shutoff for the RV toilet and it was super easy, plastic fitting from Lowe's.
