Or3500 Help!

I need a new impeller for my Oceanrunner 3500. I am going on vacation in a couple of days and need to get the pump operational again ASAP. Anybody know of any LFS that carry Aqua Medic Oceanrunner pumps??

Dude, I was on that mission about a month ago. I looked EVERYWHERE for a OR pump locally and couldn't find a one. I ended up ordering up one from Dr. Fosters. You might want to have one Red Labeled over.

What happened to the original impeller?

Compu, did you ever call that store in west palm beach. I thought I saw them there, but I Could have been wrong.

Dent,

Yup, sure did. They said they don't carry them anymore.

Well that sucks....

Dent, I live in Boynton so it would be a drive for you, but if you need to borrow a return pump for a couple of weeks, I have an extra. I think its a RIO, but it was given to me so I am nto really sure since it does not have any markings. My best guess is that its about 400gph at 3 foot.

I work in FTL, so I could bring it to work on Monday also.

PM if you are in need, I will give you my cell number

Thanks for all the suggestions, but I decided to throw a couple of powerheads in the tank and ordered a new impeller online. I think everything will be fine until I get back in a week and get the CL back up and running. compulou, I broke the impeller while attempting to clean it! idiot!
