Wash down pumps......

[Capt. Debbie]

That's actually good. Sometimes the location its mounted in is bad. It's under the deck, slapped around and sometimes submerged by bilge water. Afterwards baked in the summer heat in the sauna that's a deck in the sun. Then elevating it could cure a problem. And make it last even longer.

But you had none of that and all seems well for the same spot to re-mount the replacement pump and motor assembly.
