More (or less) spare parts for a Renault Diesel

[D. Megonigal]

Does anyone have a source for original water pump impellers (Renault RC 8 D 1979 vintage, out of a 1980 27' Hunter). So far no one at near-by marine stores has this particular one. My marina recommended a depcopump's in FL, but they don't have the part. They can either modify an existing impeller to fit the pump or turn a new shaft that will fit standard impellers available in the market. However, if anyone has this engine and knows where to get this type of impeller, that would be great.

Renault Impellers

I believe they must be obtained from Europe and there is a company called Euro Tech, in Swansea UK, with a man named Tony, that you can email and order. The email address is listed on this site, somewhere. Do a search on Renault and you will find it. Also, I am aware of someone who gets them at a boatyard in CT, however, I think they must just be a close match and not the original.
