Possible Manual Fresh Water Pump

Post by Pgtjs »

I have a 2006 C350. I notice in the manual that at one time there was a manual fresh water pump but it was deleted, as least from the schematic. I am always nervous about fresh water pumps failing (its happened twice to us in previous boats) and suppose I could carry a spare but would prefer a manual pump somewhere to cover emergency needs. Can someone advise as to where the manual pump was located and connected? Where was the spigot? Finally, does anyone know the Shurflo part number for the existing pump - ours is partially obscured and hard to read? Thank you in anticipation, Geoff.S. $ 392.

No Manual Pump on My Boat

Post by Tim April IV »

Geoff - Interesting. I have a rather early (2003 #68) C350 and I don't recall seeing anything in the manual, or on the boat, that indicates there might have been the possibility of a manual fresh water pump.

I'll take another look through my manual in the next couple weeks or so.
