    Eight years later and still the most helpful how-to there is to swap out a Hayward TriStar motor. Followed instructions step by step and took me an hour start to finish. Purchased the Hayward SPXHKIT100 Quick Pump Repair Replacement Kit for the complete shaft seal assembly and o-rings. Fit perfectly, no leaks, and saved me hundreds!

    Thank you for this - other similar videos failed to mention the "clockwise" Torq screw holding in the impeller, so I was quite frustrated until I found this video.

    Best video on TH-cam. This video help me a lot getting my pool pump up and running. The best part is how the part's are placed in the pump step by step the right way. Now the pool pump is running like it's brand new. The replacement parts cost less then $80.00 from a local pool parts store. They where all Hayward replacement parts. It saved me money. Who knows how much a pool tech would have charged me for the repair. Thanks a whole lot, You guy's are top's. Hello from Buckeye, Arizona.

    Great video. My diffuser had snapped in two and this allowed me to take it apart and put back together without much headache.

    Very helpful video. It would be good to provide guidance and tips on how to remove the impeller from the shaft of a pump that has been in use for a while, and you can't simply unscrew it as you showed on a brand-new pump.
    I needed to use (buy) a strap wrench to get a stronger grip on the impeller without damaging it, and use a 1/2" wrench to fix/hold the motor shaft on the other end.

      Finally finished the reassembly and reinstallation of my pump, and everything worked out perfectly. No leaks and the new motor is running smoothly. The hardest part was reconnecting the wiring in the rather inaccessible location of the pump.

    Great video. Replaced the shaft seal - all parts from a reputable supplier and were Hayward factory originals. Having assembled everything the pump case seal is leaking like crazy. The case halves are snugged down. New case gasket. Have disassembled it and examined/cleaned everything - reassembled VERY carefully centering the pump halves and bolt alignments. Carefully re-torqueed the bolts in a sequential manner so as to bring the entire case up to tension evenly. . . . . . the thing leaks more than ever. The gasket fits perfectly (not sure if its the correct diameter) but it was the correct part number. . . . .I'm completely stumped. Any thoughts . . . . .anyone???????

      @@HaywardPoolProducts Emailed the marketing@hayward.com . . . .havent had a response to the email I sent yesterday morning but I pulled the thing apart again today and thought that I needed to CLOSELY examine the gasket seal on the forward pump casing (up until now I was totally preoccupied with the work I had done on the shaft seal and new gasket) - everything looked fine EXCEPT for, what appears to be, a hairline fracture at the top center very near the mold seam. This is in the same location that the little geyser is being produced so I'm pretty confident I have a bad forward casing at this time.

    • @stephenm103

      Tech did finally reach out to me (thank you) and sent off a new gasket/repair kit. That said, the problem ended up being the forward pump casing which had developed a crack along he mold seam - in the space between the outlet fitting and the rear/forward pump face. Barely visible to the naked eye, you could feel it w/a finger nail. Advice for others - - - the shaft seal def was leaking but the pump case had NOT failed (at the time of the initial teardown). The case crack only revealed itself AFTER reassembly (and likely aggravated by the new pump case seal ). It was a deceptive leak - right at the face between the forward and rear pump casings and for the longest time I was convinced that I had a bad seal on the outlet . . . LESSON - you need to VERY CAREFULLY inspect this area of your pump casing if you do this repair BEFORE you reassemble - based on some other comments I've stumbled into . . . . this appears to be a not uncommon failure mode for this particular case

      The pump motors are manufactured by AO Smith, not Hayward. Taking them out to identify is the best bet. Or contact AO Smith motors.
