Impeller fit?

How tight should the impeller assembly fit in the motor / bushing of a 6000/6100? I have a replacement 6100.700 for my pump and would like to know what the proper fit should be.

Thanks,

It should be fairly loose when you replace the drive unit you need to install the new bushings and bearings that came with the new drive unit.

Hmm - That must be my problem then, the 6100.700 that I received did not come with any new bushings or bearings. The fit on the bushing was very tight so for the time being I opened the bushing up slightly.
 
I apologize for that, we ran out of drive units a couple weeks ago and since such a part is usually urgent I asked an employee to part out a pump to get them to people and he didn't get the bearings and bushings. If you PM me your info I will send them.
