Purchasing a new raw water pump from?

[RobG]

I need a new Oberdorfer N202M-15 and found these guys on the web with the lowest price: http://www.marinepumpdirect.com/servlet/the-39/Oberdorfer-Pump-N202M-dsh-15-With/Detail
Anyone have any experience with them? Reputable?
Thanks,
Rob

I purchase that pump last year from Associated Diesel (http://www.adiesel.com/store/OB-N202M-15.html). A little more money but I had no problems with them.

I bought a new pump from marinepumpdirect.com last year. Best price I found, prompt shipment and the pump was identical brand name replacement for the one on my Westerbeke.

Like Stu, I like Depco. Easy to deal with, great inventory, helpful on the phone, and good prices.

Did they eliminate the "grease cap fitting" on these pumps? I don't see the grease cap fitting on any of your links for it.
I ask because Moyer Marine sells a comparable pump that has no grease cap bearing but rather uses improved bearings which eliminate the need to forget to turn the grease cap fitting.

No grease cap needed, since no grease is ever used. Even if there was one, it's not used.

Hey,

I bought a pump from them in 2010. I had no problem with them and the pump is still working fine.

Thanks for the replies

I finally ordered the pump today. With all of the storms and house stuff there hasn't been much boat on the brain. BTW the only re-usable part of the old pump was the body so I decided to go new with the built in O ring. No more paper gaskets. Some day I'll probably re-build the old one for a spare.
