    Well worth ringing around for prices. I needed an 8000 L pump for a 1300 gallon tanker, and got prices from 850 to 1050 from 3 buisnesses within 20 miles. Ended up buying a seondhand one for 385. Its done 2 years now, and is still perfect. Surprising how the pefrormance can slowlt drop off, and you don't notie. The new one was a revelation!

    Hi dharm,
    My pump was gone beyond that, deepish grooves in the bore of the pump, causing it to eventually jam, which put a slight bend in the rotor shaft.

    music110, I got the secondhand one from Derek Johnston farm equipment in Longford town.

    Got a price of 1400quid for one afew weeks ago! Got the pump fixed instead as the whole tanker isnt even worth that, had to put in a new rotor though. Still havn't got the bill for the job, but I think a 2nd hand one would have been a way smarter move!
