Larry, are you going to be up in Vancouver any time soon? If so, bring the pump and seal and maybe I can help...

Shoot me an email...

You may have wrong seal. Lube the ceramic with rubber boot in antifreeze. Make sure the female part is clean and deburred of old rusty antifeeze gunk. It should slide right in

not having any luck fitting the seal; ceramic side in center impeller cut away, rubber side out. rubber bunches up and won't fit in the impeller properly. should i file the O/D of the ceramic so there's more room? Thanks.
