Has anyone recently replaced the rear coolant circulation pump? I have a 05 Magna w/ a 525 C13 Cat engine. The rear circulation pump has started to leak. I believe the best way to access it is through the bedroom floor. Is there a source for replacement pumps? Any insight into replacing or repairing the pump would be appreciated. Unless the repair requires special tools or skills, I will do the work myself.

Merry Christmas/happy holidays,

Some of us just by passed the pump as it is in a bad location and some of the component parts can't stand up to the heat. There is another pump up front and in my case and others seems to supply enough circulation for the dash heat to still function adequately. TWI 2004 42' Intrigue 11731

On my much older and differently equipped rig, that school bus pump is located below and behind the driver side of the engine near the transmission. It is easy to access from below.
Removing and a bypass was my election after two on the road failures with coolant loss and engine shutdown.
