oceanrunner pump

gguertin · 02/02/2008, 10:01 PM

I have a oceanrunner pump and it leaks out of the top...

I remember having trouble with it when I first got it however it stopped a little later... It was only a slow drip...

Well after installing a rdsb I moved everything around under the tank and now it is leaking again only this time much worse.

The leak is between the piece that goes into the tube and the plastic piece that screws onto the pump. It seems like there should be some sort of seal there however nothing came with the pump. Does anyone else have this pump and know if there was a seal in there? If not anyone know where I can find a seal for that size or replacement parts for that pump...

Thanks!

It should have an O ring on it that seals between the nipple and the pump housing.
