    Jan,
    Don't know where you looked for bearings but McMaster (mcmaster.com) and Grainger (grainger.com) have a wide assortment of bearings. There's probably a cross reference table somewhere for that motor but you may just have to measure the existing ones and get replacements. My thinking is to get the new motor and then fix the old one at your leisure and keep it as a spare.

    Yeah, that's sort of what I'm thinking too, if the old one isn't too rusted to save. In looking for bearings, I was mainly checking around here locally, but nobody will even really talk about repairing.

    It's still sounding a lot like a jet engine, but so far it's still doing the job. I at least got the bloom cleared up and we're back to blue water, and fortunately we're having a warm winter (even for us!) so I'm not having to use it at night very much. I've been a bit distracted and haven't yet ordered the new pump but plan to do so this week.

    How're you doing?

    Well, my pool is shut for the winter and is pretty icy, so it's not an issue. I didn't get my speakers down but they ARE designed to be out year round.

    Other than that I'm making pretty good progress, healing, and about to be sent to out-patient physical therapy. My in-house P/T is just about done. I can drive again, too.
