I just noticed that the diagram of my pump and motor shows a slinger seal on the motor shaft.

I just ordered a new motor. Does anyone know if the motor comes with the slinger seal or does it have to be ordered separately? I called the place I ordered it from, and although the guy said it does, I got the impression he wasn't sure what I was talking about.

It would really stink if I got the pump and it wasn't there. Then I'd have to wait for that part, and meanwhile my pool is sitting with no circulation/filtration.

For reference I ordered a Hayward SPX1607Z1M Super Pump motor.

Thanks.

(Hopefully I'll get a response to this thread soon)
