I have a locked 6100 that I'm soaking in vinigar right now hoping to get the magnet out but it got me to wondering if the new style impeller assembly are in stock and able to be purchased?
Okay found the answer on a later page and got the part number. now the question is how do I get the magnet out without having to send it in a lose a lot of days in the process. Soaking in vinegar and agitating it periodically? Any issue with the vinegar damaging the motor unit?
I got the pump to start running again so I'm letting it run in a bucket of 5 gallons of vinegar. I assume the cooling passage should feed vinegar down around the shaft, magnet and base to break down the calcium build up no?
Okay thread complete no replies . I managed to get the stuck one turning but still couldn't pull the magnet out so with it running in the vinegar for an hour everything cleaned itself and the magnet came out just fine and clean. Sorry for the wasted bandwidth.
