Having sorted out my fridge I now need to replace my water pump, it is labeled trail king 7 (2095 204 112) are the numbers crucial? or is any trail king 7 20psi interchangeable ?
Thanks
 
Hi, where is your pump leaking from, I had a slight weeping happening that I only found when I was investigating why the pump kept purring after use and in the end non stop, I found the screws holding the head on the motor were a little slack allowing the pressure to drop and the weeping, I also found that by taking it apart (2nd time) and cleaning mating faces that the diaphragms had bits in them stopping a good seal and thus not getting the suction needed to prime and pump so I had it out again and gave it a good clean, now working spot on, build pressure up and no leaks.

Thanks, mine is leaking where the head joins the motor, I've tried tightening to no avail, I may whip it out and take a better look.

Take the pump part off and refit with a smear of silicon grease on the mating surfaces. When refitting tighten the screws a bit at a time in rotation and don't forget to put removable thread lock on the threads.

Me too, several years ago after the winter non use.

Thanks, that's just what I needed to know, as they are available but the 112 isn't.

This is from Shurflo website, they make a few pumps, Trail king 7 is just 1 of them, if you want a 7 it will fit you needs,


You can also get spares to repair your pump if needed though they are fairly robust and a quick service maybe all that is required,
