Hi,

this seal failed on my KR1S.

Now got hold of this new seal, it looks different from the one that was fitted:

Is it the correct seal to use? I suppose the rubbery seal points to the impeller?

Thanks,
Charles

you're sure, Jan?

Dismantled another waterpump today, found the above seal (or whatever it is) in the back of the impeller:

Can any confirm this? Perhaps Howie, he posted a pic of his impeller lately IIRC.

thanks,
Charles
