A perfectly good pump.
This is almost identical to my existing 20-year old pump. That pump needed new leathers, plus it had serious corrosion, including a down rod almost rusted through. So I decided to replace the entire pump.The new pump looked like it came from the same molds, but I notice that the down rod is significantly thicker, so I expect it to last longer than the old one before corrosion thins it.
