You almost make it sound too easy. I just want to make sure we are talking about the same thing. What I was calling the thru bolt is the main driving mechanism or shaft of the motor. Part of it still seems to be seated in the impeller.

I took apart my pump motor and it looks like part of the thru bolt from the motor corroded and broke off in the impeller. Can this be fixed? I have not seen anywhere you can buy just the thru bolt. The motor seems to be working. However it was not moving any water, presumably due to the...
