So. If something is broken. Most of us try to fix it. That's normal. Has anyone tried to fix a pump impeller? Well I tried.why not it's kinda F, but not totally F.
Skimmer has been sitting in storage for awhile. Had to break it out when my new skimmers power supply died.
1. Filled the crackers with marine grade expoxy.
2. Scraped of the excess. Let it dry.
3. Applied a second coat.
4. Scraped off and sanded With 360 grit
5. Gave it a wash and lightly hit it with a lighter to smooth out
Worked like a charm. Its been running fine. Wonder how long it will last? I know it's not a permanent fix. OR IS IT.
. I have a ordered a new pump Just in case. You never know till you try. kinda like buying a used tire instead of a new one. I'll ride it till it pops.
