You need a salt water chlorinator. A salt water chlorinator is an electronic devise that converts the salt in the water from the pool into chlorine gas that is then absorbed into the water.
No. The existing pool pump will work just fine.
Need to know who made it. Need to know if it is a bolt action, pump, or semi-auto. Does it have a model number on it?
There will no issues with the water pump. Most pools don't really use salt water they put salt in the water and have a chlorinator that zaps the salt turning it into Chlorine. Salt is a bit hard on gas heaters though. I like to use heat pumps made out of titanium when I have salt systems in the water.
You need to check the fuel pump, power to the fuel pump, fuel filter and anything else that might be related.
From what I know about most cars the wisdom is the water pump and the rear seals. But, at least the water pump as it only will cost you about another $90-$110 if you do it with the belts and much more if you have to do it later if you only need to change the water pump. It's all about the labor and tearing it apart. This is the wisdom that I have heard.
If you had the valve body apart you need to check to make sure it is assembled properly. You also need to check the pump and input shaft seals.
If you are checking for it leaking, you will need to see it.
Need to know how to look after my desalination pump, how to clean it, can I use fresh water to clean the salt from the membrane.
to replace water pump on diesel first you remove the serpentine belt from the water pump pulleu next you remove the fan and fan clutch you will need 2 special wrenches for this next dump the radiator coolant and disconect radiator hoses at water pump then using 8 mm socket remove the bolts that hold water pump to block clean old gasket from durface of block install new pump and gasket replace everything else is reverse of pulling it apart
If the pump is not bad, there is no need to replace it. Just make darn sure that no dirt gets inside of the lines. Use a parts cleaner to clean off the line connections, before they are taken apart.
You do not need " a saltwater pump" . Most pumps on the market will do to pump the amount of water you need to be pumped. You have to hydraulically match the pump the the amount of water you have and the type and capacity of each piece of equipment you have. The filter, the heater, the pump all have manufacturer's specs as to what work they can handle. I prefer a certain brand of a piece of equipment - this type of pump, that type or brand of filter or heater etc. k
You probably have an air lock in the pump. You need to take the pump apart and assenble the veins with vasoline so it will prime itself. GoodluckJoe
