Loud Pump

[vchavez]

Well, I took the item apart (for the most part)... it has a piece of plastic tubing about 2" long stuck in the impeller, along with some of those air soft bb's.

How do I remove the impeller from the motor/shaft? I removed the reverse threaded screw without any problems, but the impeller, back of the housing (where the motor bolts too) won't come off.

Do I just need to gradually pry it off? Is there a seal behind this where it may be leaking?

Thanks.

Here is the impeller side, with the screw removed, but the impeller won't come off. Does this impeller have to unscrew from the motor shaft as well? if so, how do I keep the motor shaft from spinning?

In your pic, pop that littler round nut off the back of the motor. This will give you access to the motor shaft. It should be flat at that point, so you can hold witha pir of chennel locks and then spin off the impeller.
