My original Sherwood pump (1996) is leaking a little, rather old for a rebuild. Would replace with an Oberdorfer but not in stock anywhere and no date when will be available. I found this pump: does anyone have any knowledge/ thoughts on this pump. Thanks.

Last year about this time I bought the JMP pump from Woodline Parts online. Price was $385 or so.
My Sherwood started weeping badly but it did continue to cool the engine. The "complete rebuild kit" I had onboard turned out to be missing the seal that failed.
I needed a replacement quick and the JMP is working fine, the Sherwood is now rebuilt as a complete spare.

Pump for the M35(B)? I just ordered the OBD n202m-908 yesterday. No troubles finding it in stock online. The N202m-837 is a kit with mounting hardware and was also in stock several places online.
check here if this is the one you're thinking of: (I called a verified before ordering yesterday)

I replaced the original Sherwood with the JMP, some five years ago, No problem at all, Pump is full bronze.

Bought this pump years ago from Big Blue Ocean Marine and it seems to be an exact replacement for the Sherwood & cheaper. I've had no problems with it working for at least 3 seasons. Go for it

Follow up question, I received the pump, WB7108, I noticed there is no mounting gasket with the pump. Dealer said JMP doesn't have mounting,gaskets. What did you guys do for a gasket, does OEM gaskets work or ? Thanks.

I buy a sheet of gasket from the auto store and trace the base of the pump, cut and punch holes where the mounting bolts are using a paper punch. Use a very thin gasket. Nothing special about this paper gasket.
