New SHURFlo Smart Sensor 5.7 Fresh Water Pump - 2011

Pump is leaking.
OK so I screwed up and somehow bought an SHURFlo RV pump for our house water pump.
Serial # 5900-2010 and it should have been a Serial # 5901-2011.
October 2011 - Currently At Marina Cortez Harbor Island, San Diego, CA
OEM pump to be replaced.
So what happened is I bought a RV OEM pump that is sold to manufactures of RV’s and carries a one year warranty.
 It is not made for marine use (by the marine industry).
It will however work well as a backup if I can re-build it which I am going to try to do and hope the cost is low.
We changed out the hose from the water tanks to the pump to a shorter non kink able hose
We added a terminal block for easier maintenance.
The hose out going to the house water will get replaced when we replace the hot water heater. It will be the same non-kink able hose as the inlet and be up out of the way.

 We are making a mounting plate to better hold the pump and so the heat sink on the bottom has air under it. 

 The new SHURFlo Serial # 5901-2011 Extreme™ Smart Sensor 5.7 Fresh Water Pump 12 VDC we just put in to replace it with we bought at Marine Exchange and carries a 3 year warranty from date of manufacture which is stamped on the pump (9-14-2011) so it will we good for a few years from now. At the time of installation of the old pump that we replaced the original house water pump with we were not keeping the blog. We could not find out where or when we bought the old pump but now with the blog we have a “log” of all out transactions etc.
