Fresh water pump suggestions

In preparation for a future project I need to relocate the water pump on our 2002 Mk2.   Since the pump is original equipment I’m considering replacing it with a new pump.    I’ve heard the old pump model has been discontinued.   Has anyone thats installed a new pump recommend a replacement?  

Thanks,

Ray

I think when we last replaced ours, maybe half a dozen years ago, we went with a Shurflo 2GPM pump.   Seems to be ample capacity.  There are lots of choices in the market.

I had to replace mine and found the best product was from

Oberdorfer make a perfect replacement of really good quality and are very helpful.
If you search the archives you will find a lot of info.

I should have been more clear.   I'm replacing the potable water pressure pump.
Thank you,

Ray;
 A Flo-Jet 4405-143 is what we are using. ​It's working out very well after 4 years of operation. About $135.00
