markdadof2 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 AARRRG. Had surgery today and relaxing on the couch when my Return pump decided to die on me. I run my skimmer, chiller, Ca reactor and a few other items off this pump. It was a sealine 6540 pump - 767 GPH, 10.23 ft. Max head pressure. Dimensions: 7.2” x 5.9” x 7” and Connections: 3/4" hose barb compression fitting inlet & outlet So, does anyone know of a local shop that I can send my wife to get one tomorrow, or something comparable? Anyone have something like it for sale? Right now I hooked up a pump that will pretty much just move water to the display and run a bit of water thru the skimmer, but not sure how long I have before this does not suffice. Thanks in advance all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnkrcklives Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I have a used mag9 and a used mag 24 they do not run the same head height but would suffice till you could get what you need. Let me know I can drop off a loaner pump tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markdadof2 Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 That would be great if i could borrow it until i find one local or mail order! I think i will be able to drive tomorrow so i could swing by your way also. Where abouts are you? Im in beaverton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markvo Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I have a GenX - 55 pump that I will sell to you cheap or trade for something useful to me. I live in NW Tigard, near Scholls and Murray. I will be gone from 8:30AM to around 1PM today though. Send me a PM if are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasasah Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Hey Mark, I don't advise hitting your pump but when i bought my tank the guy said the return pump will go out not turn back on if i unplug it and to hit it with a hammer.... Works every time. When i plug it back in nothing... I pull it to the top and smack it with a hammer and it starts lol. Kinda weird but it works great.

markdadof2 Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 Kasasah, that was the first thing I tried as it has happened before. In the future I will have a spare on hand that I can use or someone can borrow! I'm thinking I need a new impeller, but will first order a new pump. Pnkrcklives was nice enough to loan me a pump for a week until a new one comes in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
