how is it siezed is it a rust issue? i may have an idea you can try but you would have to clean the snott out of it after you try it... i use it on car locks that are siezed i set it in and over night it is free and clear. but i would clean it for awhile before use for the tank. its just a thought

you cant fix that impeller it works on magnetic current the only thing that is going to do is delete out a tank.

Well I have done a lot of searching so far but have not found an impeller to order as of yet at a decent price.

Not to mention the person that sold me a broken pump for $120 has not come forward at all. I know I will NEVER EVER buy a mechanical part sight unseen. Can be trusting anymore.

I feel for you. I bought an r/o unit over the phone from a store that I dealt with alot. The dude sent me a peice of crap that was apparentely was not even supposed to be sold to the public. So NO WARRANTY. Had a problem with it from day one as well. Same guy sold a buddy of mine a chiller and still owes him peices for it. So this is what the world is coming to. Can't trust anybody. I've even been nice and not mentioned who he is. Sorry Grizz not trying to hijack.

Greg, I really feel for you my friend. I was in the similar boat when i got my cube tank and I would NEVER EVER buy anything unseen and not tested without really knowing that person.

Anyway, you should call Big Al and Gold to check if they have the part.

I try to call Golds from the # on the 411.ca but all I got was a fax machine, do you have there # by chance.

The cheapest I have found online is $75 USD but have only found 1 place that will ship here.
