Carver Owners Forum

Hey All,

I have a 2003 396 with Cummins 370 engines.

Been chasing a Diesel leak for a while now and have finally found it! the transfer pump mounted on the aft area in the engine bay behind the port engine. I have isolated the transfer pump but shutting the valves at the tank to the transfer pump, and turned off the breaker to that pump (which is actually always off for me unless I'm going to use it).

So my real question is; has anyone rebuilt one? if so where do you get the parts? I have looked up the part number in the Carver Manual and found nothing online:

Carver Part number:
Pump: Fuel Transfer NO SW - 6007401 - ENG=960, or 9D6, OR=962

The electric motor is fine, but the gaskets that enclose the pump itself is where the leak seems to be coming from. Any thoughts?

Carver did not make the pump, so those numbers won't get you anywhere. You need to get the info off the pump and see if you can find a rebuild kit.

Ok, that's what I was thinking. Probably have to remove it to get the numbers. Where it is placed the numbers are not visible.

So sad to hear about Carvers closing....

Whenever you encounter this, take your phone and put it into 'video record' mode. Stick a light back there and wave your phone around to take a video of anything you can't see with your own eyes. Review the video to see items of interest, then stick your phone back there and take some pictures with the flash on. You might have to take a few to get something like an information tag in focus, but this method works wonders.

and when all else fails: in the end it's just a pump. Many pumps around. Note the diameters and voltage and discard the old and (t)rusted unit for a new and un(t)rusted unit.

Amen to that!! It seems that may be my easiest.
