Pump ?

[BlownDSG]

So I went to start my MSX 150 and noticed it was having a hard time turning over and it was making a loud grinding sound. I pulled the pump and noticed the impeller is touching on the housing. My question is how do I get this thing apart? The wear ring if thats what it is called seemed to be stuck to it. Any idea's on how to get this thing apart and fixed? Any help would be great, Thanks

Small rubber hammer with med size screw driver. Place the screw driver between the stator and extention.

Ok so I finally got the cover extension off. Used alittle heat and a hammer lol. Thanks for the tips everyone. So take a look at the pic's. Wonder if someone or something got sucked up in the impeller. Look at the wavey part of the housing. What do you guys think. Also should I order a housing and a new impeller? Impeller seems ok just alittle ruff on the edges and it doesn't seem to be bent.

I think a new extension/wear ring is only $55

Just go with a new all stainless wear ring and this will never happen again. chances are the impeller will be with in spec, only way to find out is fit new wear ring and measure.
