Shurflo water pump leaking

My Shurflo classic has sprung a leak, I may of cleared out the antifreeze to quick. It's coming from between the very front piece which is the on/off switch. Inside is the pieces in the second pic. Anyone experience in this fix? I can get the rebuild kit but not sure if water should be even making it that far. I'm right next to PPL motorhomes in Houston if I need anything.

They had the front housing for 25 or the revolution for 67.. Just went with a new pump. What a worthy upgrade. Shouldn't wake the dw at night now.

That front housing is where freeze damage usually occurs. You can replace it (part #94-231-30) for usually under $20. All of the 2088 series demand pumps use the same housing. Unfortunately it's more profitable for RV dealers to sell you a new pump than parts, so it's a rare dealer that stocks them. You can sometimes find them in farm stores and most certainly online.

I noticed mine started to leak after camping in freezing temps 2 years ago. When I removed it I noticed some corrosion where the parts join which said it had a very small leak over a long period of time. I took it apart and tried to clean it and relighted the bolts but it still leaked and sucked in air. I bought a new one from Amazon and while waiting for the part to come in I took it apart one more time and put some silicone adhesive at the parting plane and that worked. So now I have a backup pump. I would try the adhesive first before buying another.

New pump is way to go. I JUST replaced my old Pump and am amazed at how quiet the new one is

The classic is being phased out.......

You can get the 4008 Revolution at PPL.....direct replacement and an upgrade (higher flow rate & pressure)
Is it time for your medication or mine?

The more I read I just may replace the classic with a revolution. The classic is a bit noisey, still good though. Just replace and be done with it!

When I went to buy parts to replace my pump from freeze damage, I found Camping World didn't have the part(s) I needed, so I just bought a new pump.
