looking for Vapor Pump Assembly gaskets

[bob johnson]

1995 115 ocean runner

J115SLEOC

I have dissasembled the fuel bracket and most of its components. It was crudded up,

I found the vapor pump assy for sale and also a main diaphram ..but there are two gaskets and the diaphram used, and the place i was looking didnt list the gaskets seperately.

Id rather NOT buy the whole vapor Pump Assy, for $95!!

thanks

shop.evinrude.com shows different components for the vapor pump assm. under the fuel system and components listings...unsure if they are what you are looking for...fwiw

from this exploded diagram from shop.evinrude.com

there doesnt seem to me, to be any parts other than the whole assy or one diaphram part#37 and #38

the vapor pump is a sandwhich assembly three molded plastic pieces with two gaskets and a diaphram all sandwhiched together, the middle piece is complicated itself, with self contained assemblies in it as well!!!

here is mine:

Bob, have you tried any of the salvage yards listed on this forum for a complete pump?

no, I took it apart to make sure everything was clean...id think Id be in the same boat with any used part!!!

this is an extra fuel conponent bracket i bought , when i bought some heads and carbs on craigslist...they threw in the harness and this bracket( no fuel pumpp though!)

so the one vapor pump I have on my 115 is still intact... as well is the spare that needs to go back onto the 1997 90 hp i am rebuilding..

my plan was to get stuff rebuilt and ready , so when i tear down the cowling... and I pulled worn or parts needing rebuilding, I have parts to go right back on, that day!!

on this job i am doing...I was having leaking on several carbs, and I have had them two years, then the motor was giving me some starting issues... I traced the main issue to the starter, so when i pull the cowling to replace the starter, i figure i install rebuilt carbs and fuel components and hoses , while I am at it!!!!!!!!

sooooo i wanted to have a rebuilt vapor pump ready to go...

didnt know they wouldnt offer gaskets

Ill probably just go buy some gasket material and cut my own...

thanks

Now you're talking. A good mechanic can repair things and not just replace parts. I still have my set of gasket hole cutter punches I bought 30 yrs ago.
