Part # GOKIT3
Standard tune up kit for the Hayward Super Pump includes the shaft seal and all o-rings, gaskets and lubricant.
We highly recommend replacing the shaft seal, o-rings and gaskets when replacing your motor. If you use your old shaft seal, it will not mate up properly with the new motor and may leak.

I recently changed my pool motor and gaskets. I made sure to lubricate all the gaskets with vaseline. A few days later water is leaking from the pump. What did I do wrong? Help please!!

You never want to use vaseline on any rubber gaskets or o-rings. Vaseline is petroleum based and will deteriorate the rubber quickly. Whenever you change the motor on a pool pump it is recommended that you replace the gaskets and shaft seal as well. A >Go-kit contains the shaft seal, packet of non-petroleum based lubricant and gaskets you will need for your pump. If you already have the gaskets, you can purchase >Magic Lube.

My pump is not priming even after cleaning impeller. Will purchasing this kit aid in fixing that problem?
Reply
The seal kit can help with loss of prime. I can't guarantee that it will solve your problem. The loss of prime could be from an air leak at the valves or plumbing in front of the pump.

First off, the instructional video's on your site are invaluable! I used this kit with a new century pump I purchased from INYO. As long as you follow the steps in the video, you can't go wrong. Be sure to use the supplied lube ( I always have a tube of Magic Lube around for back up),

I bought this kit to fix my pump. I also bought a new motor. Inyo's YouTube has some great videos on how to do the repair. It was relatively easy. I didn't need a new pump, just the motor, but while everything was apart it was time to upgrade the rest of the elements. Turn off the electricity, disconnect the wiring, remove the bolts holding the motor to the pump housing, replace the parts and reassemble. This was the first time I've done this and the whole thing took about 2 hours.

Disconnected the pump and replacement the rings. It was self explanatory and everything fit exactly where the old ones came off. The lubricant supplied with the kit was enough to use for the entire kit. Inyoupools has youtube videos or videos right on their website to help walk you through step by step.

We replaced the motor, but didn’t have to replace the debris basket. However, at the suggestion of a product specialist, we did go ahead and replace the seals on anything adjacent to the new motor. We are glad we did! The parts arrived as described and fit well.

Replaced bearings, seals and capacitor. I got a 1hp Superpump for free that was thought to be junk. The main issue was very bad bearings especially the front one likely due to an old shaft seal. Because of this the capacitor blow out also. Total repair time was about an hour and cost was $70. Now a have a perfectly running spare with my current pump ~10 years old and getting a little load.
1. Had the necessary, basic hand tools and bearing puller (if you don’t, HF has them cheap an auto parts store will loan them).
2. Disassemble per the Inyopools video. These are pretty standard motors so not hard to figure out.
3. Cleaned and check motor with multimeter, pressed new bearings on.
4. Re-assembled motor per the video.
5. Replaced all the seals. Save the water slinger because that won’t be in the kit.
6. Checked adjustment on v-switch. This is important on the older motors. Inyopool has a video on this too.
7. Replaced start capacitor.
8. Successful test and high-5’s all around.

I replaced my pool motor and INYO recommended this Tune Up kit to replace the seals in the pump. The kit had everything I needed including a small tube of silicon lubricant. All parts were exact replacement and fit perfectly. You simply remove the old gaskets and follow the written instructions and or watch the many videos that INYO Pools makes for your viewing and then ease of performing the job, without having any experience. This was easier than I had anticipated. One thing that was a easy but a little tricky is the shaft bearing is in two halves and they have ceramic faces that must mate. One half is white ceramic and that is easy to see and is well described and highlighted in the videos, but like a lot of things when you're looking at the parts it's not black and white 100% which side of the black ceramic 2nd half of the shaft bearing is the shiny side. You don't want to touch the ceramic surface as the oil from your fingers might cause the bearing to burn... after inspecting closely I was able to figure it out.

Ordered a new motor from INYO pools. I flt I should get the tune up kit to install it. It was a wise choice as it comes with all the seals needed to replace the motor Installation went smooth.
First took the pump off the filter base. then you separate the motor from the basket. Then remove the impeller and spring bushing. Replace the seal to the basket. The impeller was also worn so I replaced it as well. The motor shaft has a flat section the wold the shaft while you replace the impeller. Reassemble the pump section, note where it is marked top. Put the assembled back on the base. Prime the pump then start it up.

First I turned off the breaker to remove power. Then I removed the wires from the pump and removed the 4 bolts. That let me take the pump from the front end where the basket and plumbing is connected.
I brought the pump to the workbench and removed the impeller by placing a wrench on the rear of the shaft and turned the impeller until it loosened up enough to remove it. After removal I cleaned up the shaft and removed the seal with a rubber mallet and screwdriver.
My pump was leaking for quite sometime so I had to remove some rust from the underside of the pump and used spray paint to give it some protection. I installed the new seal with care not to touch the ceramic pieces. Next I put the impeller back on the shaft and put the front end which snapped back on.
I then returned to my pump location and fastened the pump back with the bolts I removed. I reconnected the electrical, turned the breaker back on and filled the basket area with water to start the siphon. Within minutes the pump was back working again. This process took me about an hour. My pump is under a deck so it took a little longer to get to it.

We diagnosed that it must be the motor as, the pump would pump but then trip the circuit breaker. I talked with helpful sales people on the phone and ordered a replacement motor for the Haywood Super Pump. My only mistake was not mentioning that we have a salt water generator and we should have ordered the heavier duty shaft seal, but lessons learned.

There isn’t much step by step to give on this item. I replaced the seals one by one as I disassembled the old motor and put the stuff on the new motor. The gasket for the pump lid was very easy to put on as well as the other ones. The only one I had an issue putting in was at the back of the pump that connected the motor to the pump because it would want to pop out as I went around. Eventually I got my fingers spread out far enough to hold the gasket and got it in.

Just replaced pump with a Century 1hp. pump. The greatest part of this evaluation was the fantastic support I received from the on-line videos by InYoPools.com and their friendly and helpful staff. Not only the best prices but best service to boot.

I purchased the correct motor from INYOU and it arrived days sooner than expected. I took the recommendation and ordered the seal kit as well. Finally on Fathers Day I had the time to tackle this daunting project. Always wary of anything electrical, I took every precaution I could to not electrocute myself with my son present. With everything checked and double checked the moment of truth arrived. I three the breakers on and then threw the switch on the timer box and........SUCCESS! The motor turned and the pump started circulating the water. Awesome feeling of overcoming a fear of electricity and knowing I did it right the first time. The tutorials from INYO were perfect and I saved over $ 330.00 doing it myself.

All of the seals needed to overhaul a Haywood Pump were in this kit. The kit needs to have instructions because it took a while to figure out what went where.
