old Coleman Hand Rocker Pump

[Peggy]

The water pump in our Boler 1300 is misbehaving. Leaks a bit of water out onto the countertop, and requires too many pumps to get even a small amount of water. Feels like a seal is not sealing! I unscrewed the faucet, and see a sealed pump, "Coleman hand rocker Pump, model 2231"
Going to "the City" Tomorrow, and would like to get whatever I need to fix it. Should I try to pry it apart, or would the whole pumps be still available, in Alberta. Thanks!

You should be able to purchase a repair kit from your local rv dealership for about $8, it contains new washers, gaskets and a new ball bearing for the pump. I had just gotten one just a couple of weeks ago. Make sure to lube the plunger gasket with vaseline.

Check the linkage between the rocker arm and plunger, it sometime breaks, and I believe you can also get a kit for that as well. A new pump, might cost you $35 and up.

hope this helps

Just noticed that you are in Central alberta, does that mean you are coming to Red Deer?, if so, I got the parts from Vellner leisure, but they had to order the parts and it took a couple of days to get there.
